This book is a classic in the history of art. In it François Baschet recounts the research and creation of his Sound Sculptures, with which he began a pioneering career combining art and science, sculpture and music. The willingness to share his findings inspired another breakthrough: participatory exhibitions, spaces where everyone could explore and play with sound. François Baschet’s conception of acoustics—a method of understanding the functional relations between form, matter, action and sou…

German, English. Rolf Julius's rare exhibition catalogue. Paperback, 22 cm, 79 pp. Ills.: b/w and color illustrations.

English/Japanese. Small naked speakers, iron plates, glass plates, and sand were some of the materials Rolf Julius used to create a sound space. The sky-like tranquil space was filled with whispering electronic sounds that somewhat resembled the songs of crickets.

Rolf Julius has frequently been compared to John Cage for his attempts of integrating the world of common noises into the realm of sounds. "The surface of a sound interests me. Is it round or angled, grinding and raw, or smooth, etc." Julius thus creates extraordinary sound installations which can be described as "music for the eyes" and have secured him an unmistakeable place in the spectrum of contemporary art.

Art-Record / Handmade Art Edition of 100 Copies in Box with 4 Prints & 2 Inserts. This is the first vinyl record by the legendary Rolf Julius (1939-2011) whose work is largely focused on “small music”, or sounds so subtle they’re barely discernible. One of the most significant artists in the border areas of music and fine art, Julius, like John Cage, works with the term of "silence", and sound is a liminal listening experience. The sounds in Julius' works have spatial and physical qualities such…

Curtis Cuffie (1955–2002) was an artist who lived and worked in and around the East Village from the mid-1980s until his untimely death in the early 2000s.
