Poster for concert by Ron Goldman and the author in the tunnels under the Center for the Arts at Wesleyan, February 1974, cleverly scheduled to coincide with a residency by John Cage. He subsequently wrote about it in his essay "The Future of Music", published in Empty Words -- my first, ego-inflating bit of press. Poster by Meredith Gang.
Alvin Lucier rehearsing Music For Solo Performer at Paula Cooper gallery, May 1975. Seen through a wall of Dynaco SCA80 amplifiers, arranged on their sides by Ron Kuivila and the author as the only way to fit eight on one table. Alvin's comment: "Gordon Mumma would not approve". Photo by Marc Grafe.
