few copies back in stock, long out of print: This is an amazing catalogue with audio CD focused on sound art / audio installations by Laurie Anderson, issued in an edition of 500 copies for the Milan PAC museum back in 2004 and long deleted. The soundworks presented in this amazing catalogue give the readers a chance to explore the world of the artist themselves: The Handphone Table, for example, invites visitors to perceive sounds through their own arm bones. Another audio-visual experience can be experienced in the works The Tape Bow Violin (1977) and Neon Violin (1983) – which make use of the instrument employed by Anderson so often that it has become a kind of “second voice” for her and whose sound she has altered and electronically manipulated in every conceivable way. The Digital Violin (1984), for example, generates a variety of sounds that can be uploaded from a hard disk: the visitor hears wailing animals and crashing computers.
