Maryanne Amacher "City Links"
Ludlow 38 / The Goethe-Institut New York
This event has ended.
In Ms. Amacher’s “City-Links” series, which she began in 1967 and returned to periodically through the 1990s to create 22 installations in all, sounds from different locations within a city — or several cities — were transmitted over telephone lines and mixed together. In the first, she placed microphones at five locations in Buffalo and mixed the sounds transmitted from each site for a 28-hour live radio broadcast. Other pieces in the series used sounds from the harbors of Boston and New York. In “City-Links 15,” Ms. Amacher combined sound from New York, Boston and Paris for a live broadcast carried by WBAI-FM in New York and Radio France Musique in Paris.
