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.
