Summary
Reel 1 includes introduction and discussion by John Clauser about the meaning of power, its effect on art and the world, duality of left/right brain attributes and the growing power of artists (i.e. women). Reel 2 features Lois V. Vierk's "A work in progress", an experimental instrumental piece that is based on only rhythm (time); no spacial elements, or specific notes. Tape has a lot of background noise in the beginning of piece. Reel 3 features Richard Zvonar's "Hex, a work in progress" (performed by Relache), with explanation of the piece [low audio] at the beginning. Computer music, instrumental and vocalizations (Barbara Noska) were played. Ending remarks by John Clauser [ends abruptly]. Reel 4: Tone at beginning of tape. Introduction by John Clauser. Audio commentary of slides and lecture of "The geometry of the Earthwork at Yellow Springs", landscape art made and explained by Rachel Fletcher for the celebration of summer soltice. Afterwords John Clauser invites audience members to view the installation outside; tape ends abruptly. Synthesized music plays [unidentifed]. Reel 5 is the master audio recording of Vesna Miksic's performance/installation piece "What is it about Halley's Comet that makes me remember my great-grandmother?" Script repeats itself; 3 minimalist and unlisted pieces of music are performed [performers not specified] with computer music, water sound effects (i.e. dripping) and unspecified instruments. Piece is based on Miksic's family tree, according to the program. Materials not specified on recording; may be video or photography slides according to program.
