Prepared Tube One: Song of the Red Toad / Michael Basinski., 2011

 Item
Identifier: CC-54929-990345

According to Basinski, this prepared tube is an example of an "opem," which is a poem for improvisational performance. He indicates that one should perform the opems in ensemble via improvisational interpretation by "reading" and voicing the textual elements through the tubes (or not) and around them. These opems are instruments and should be treated as such and they are scores and, again, should be engaged as such. Use silents and sound. Play. Orchestrate. Duration is variable. This work was displayed in the Gallery's exhibition entitled, Object Poems (2011). -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
