AUDIO TOUR: THE 4'33" MUSEUM

Stasisfield founder John Kannenberg presents an initial sampling of an
ongoing practice that began in 2005: "performing" John Cage's 4'33" in
various museums around the world. Instead of not playing an
instrument, however, these tracks of unmanipulated phonography are the
product of actively recording a space, more fully realizing Cage's
motivation behind composing 4'33": the encouragement of active
listening. By placing this practice within the context of museums, it
both translates a primarily visual experience into a purely sonic one,
and reaffirms the long-standing relationship that museums have with
the experimental music world, serving as venues for avant-garde
performances.
Thanks for listening.
