First drafted almost a year ago during a cine-concert at the National Gallery of Art featuring in-person appearances by the filmmaker Morrison and the Danish composer Simon Christensen. Those two figures initially conceived of this 65" HD-Cam work as a tribute to Charles Ives, Conlon Nancarrow, Steve Reich, and Trent Reznor--in 4 movements. Bill Morrison has his own channel on youtube thru which he makes available samples & even complete works. Here's the publisher's trailer for this particular feature TRIBUTES--Pulse:
