Hadden and Watson, as Wave Farm artists-in-residence in 2013, recorded dozens of local interviews for their "Wage/Working" project. The length of each interview was determined by the length of time it took the interviewee to earn a dollar. The jukebox lived for a year at the Cairo Library, and moved recently to the Athens Cultural Center, where it will be on display through Nov. 30. The artists hope that it will continue to travel throughout Greene and Columbia counties, according to the story in Metroland.
