 Item
Identifier: CC-07945-8099
Scope and Contents This book deals with the history of sound and sound installations by artists across modern and contemporary art movements. It is noteworthy that Charles Cros, whose works were translated by Laura Aga-Rossi (held by the Sackner Archive), is mentioned with Edison as the co-inventor of the phonograph. Both this instrument and the radio are featured topics in this book. Includes discussion of artistic languages such as zaum and glossolalia (used by Artaud), precursors to sound poetry.Between the Covers Review: Wireless Imagination directly addresses what is perhaps the most conspicuous silence in contemporary theory and art criticism, the silence that surrounds the polyphonous histories of audio and radio art. By gathering both original essays and several newly translated documents into a single volume, editors Douglas Kahn and Gregory Whitehead provide a close audition to some of the most telling and soundful moments in the "deaf century", including the fantastic acoustic scenarios...

Scope and Contents

Internet: Masterpieces, the cliche goes, spring fully formed from the dark imaginations of temperamental geniuses moved by intuition, inspiration, and epiphany. Such revelations can certainly fuel the creative process, but so too can auspicious accidents, false starts, or even failures. In printmaking, these occurrences are typically recorded in preliminary impressions known as working proofs. Printmaking thus affords an exceptional opportunity to examine this complex and contingent aspect of the creative process. Yes, No, Maybe looks at sequences of artistic choices by juxtaposing fully resolved prints and related working proofs produced at the influential studio Crown Point Press between 1972 and 2010. This catalogue also provides background information for the proof copies of Tom Phillips Dante's "Inferno" that are held by the Sackner Archive, -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
