  Tate Modern Performance
Listening to Judd, 2003
© Stephen Vitiello and The Project, NY and Los Angeles

Sound is encoded in grooves on vinyl, particles on tape and pits in plastic; it travels as acoustic pressure, electromagnetic waves, scratching, hiss, and interference. But increasingly these familiar clicks and pops co-mingle in the aural landscape with new sounds and surfaces from both the everyday and the archive.

Mixing performances, talks and discussions, this sound forum features New York artist Stephen Vitiello, whose work includes site-specific field recordings of Donald Judd sculptures in Marfa, Texas, and Scanner, whose recent projects include Warhol's Surfaces, an aural distillation of Warhol's persona through manipulation of the legendary Pop Artist’s voice. Scanner and Vitiello will be joined by sound critic Philip Sherburne, who will investigate their audio explorations.

This event will feature a live webcast in collaboration with the artists and speakers.
