Live capture.

Lou Reed drones. The artist's personal guitars and amplifiers put in to feedback drone loops, and sounds manipulated, layered, tweaked, reconstructed by 4 artists.

Pocket recording of Laurie Anderson and Stewart Hurwood’s sonic experience at The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine in Morningside Heights, NYC. 

Recorded as I moved through the cathedral, starting on the floor of the chancel/sanctuary, where the crescent of guitars and amplifiers were set up; moving west in to the center of the transept, where sounds from the nave and the chancel merged; continuing in to the nave, where 3 performers manipulated and added to the guitar drones; finally, returning to the chancel for the conclusion of the experience.

Recorded Thursday, March 13 10:30–11:30.
I hold no copyright—all work copyright of the respective performers.
