Michael Schumacher (New York) Rebroadcast from a webcast Dec. 17. The Portable Multi-Channel Sound System is a musical instrument designed specifically for Michael J. Schumacher’s spatialized compositions; building on the pioneering work of composers such as Alvin Lucier and Maryanne Amacher, presentations explore the relationship between musical form and architectural space and how this relationship can inform listening; combining installation and performance, algorithmic composition and improvisation, this goes beyond acoustics to the way people inhabit and use spaces, creating paradigms for listening and formal expectations http://michaeljschumacher.com/PM-CSS
