Audio Tour: The 4'33" Museum cover
Stasisfield founder John Kannenberg presents an initial sampling of an ongoing practice that began in 2005: "performing" John Cage's 4'33" in various museums around the world. Instead of not playing an instrument, however, these tracks of unmanipulated phonography are the product of actively recording a space, more fully realizing Cage's motivation behind composing 4'33": the encouragement of active listening. By placing this practice within the context of museums, it both translates a primarily visual experience into a purely sonic one, and reaffirms the long-standing relationship that museums have with the experimental music world, serving as venues for avant-garde performances.
