Phone Calls For John Cage

24:02

Notes

"Recorded on September 12, 2006 in live performance at a celebration of John Cage’s birthday at Shantytown in Jacksonville, FL using six cell phones and a mixer. Arrangements had been made to call 29 people in randomly selected order for sound contributions. Not all of these calls connected; when they did, not all of the sounds came through. But the attempt was made to call the following, in this order: A.M. Salad, Yip-Yip, The Hi-fi Envelope, Aaron Zarzutzki, Charlie Mcalister, Travis Stewart, Tom Smith, Brian of Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Fall Apart Machine, Andy Hess, Alan Mills, Lance aka Guhts, Caustic Castle, The Curious Hair, Irene Moon, Work/Death, Oubliette, Praew Jik, Cory Monteiro, J. Huntington Chase, Uh-Oh Spades, DJ Jaunty, C. Goff III, Wether, Nelson Hallonquist, Hal McGee, This is My Condition, Yellow Crystal Star, Id M Theft Able. A random incoming call was also accepted. I know many of those listed do not have sounds contained herein, but pre-determined parameters & chance yielded these results."
