Drift

Description: Drift,a collaboration between visual artist Leah Singer and musician and poet Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, has been growing since 1991 and is documented here, at last, on DVD. While Singer manipulates films in a live improvisation, not unlike the way a DJ mixes sound, Ranaldo produces music, sounds and texts in response. Drift'simmersive sonic and visual environment has traveled to museums, galleries and concert halls worldwide, and was most recently performed live at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. This DVD set boasts a 5.1 surround sound mix, a 112-page book of full-color images and poetry, a conversation with Ranaldo and Singer, and texts by experimental filmmaker Jonas Mekas, artists Sam Durant and Tom Leeser, writer and musician Alan Licht, and curators Roland Spekle and Lea Rekow.Renaldo, Lee is the author of 'Drift ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781933045344 and ISBN 1933045345.
