about

In 1973, a group of young emerging artists came together in a workshop with David Tudor and co-created a new, large-scale version of his sound work Rainforest, which explores the use of found objects as homemade loudspeakers. Each object transforms sounds designed for it by a performing musician.

This performed installation eventually became known as Rainforest IV, hailed in histories of music and media arts as a historic work of sound art and sustained by the group Composers Inside Electronics which developed around Tudor and Rainforest.

Fifty years after the 1973 workshop, another workshop in Kingston has brought together a group of 13 sound artists to learn about the piece through making, performing and discussing it.
