The 9/11 Commemoration at Cabell Library, which ends Friday, Sept. 23, has generated much talk about 9/11 itself, but also much talk about sound art. Stephen Vitiello speaks about sound art and reflects on his piece "World Trade Center Recordings: Winds After Hurricane Floyd," a central component of the Commemoration, in this brief documentary, "Listening with Intent," from ABC Arts Online.
John Priestley of the VCU School of Medicine, who is also a sound artist, referred to footage from the film in his presentation on Vitiello's World Trade Center piece at the 9/11 Commemoration opening reception Sept. 9. For those who were unable to attend or who wish to revisit the background information that he provided, he has made the presentation available on his website, where he archives many of his experiments in sound art.
