This small, striking book commemorates the career of experimental
music composer Alvin Lucier, and features an interview with Lucier
and curator Andrea Miller-Keller, essays by Nicolas Collins, Ronald
Kuivila, Michael Roth and Pamela Tatge, and details of a symposium,
exhibit and special performances of Lucier's work held at Wesleyan
University, November 4-6, 2011. Lucier has pioneered in many areas
of music composition and performance, including the notation of
performers' physical gestures, the use of brain waves in live
performance, the generation of visual imagery by sound in vibrating
media, and the evocation of room acoustics for musical purposes.
From 1970 to 2011 he taught at Wesleyan University where he was
John Spencer Camp Professor of Music. Lucier performs, lectures and
exhibits his sound installations extensively in the United States,
Europe and Asia.
