Alien Roots launch + listening event
Brooklyn, New York
Free
Join us to launch Alien Roots: Éliane Radigue, the tenth and final anthology from Blank Forms Editions. Combining key texts, newly translated primary documents, interviews, and commissioned essays, this compendium interrogates the French composer’s idiosyncratic compositional practice, which both embraces and confounds the iterative nature of magnetic tape, the subtleties of amplification, and the very experience of listening.
Listen to Biogenesis (1973, heartbeats and ARP 2500 synthesizer on magnetic tape), followed by a conversation between Alien Roots co-editors Charles Curtis and Lawrence Kumpf.
