Mr. Conceicao, I just want to thank you for putting this on RU-vid. I wanted to buy "Sferics; Music For Solo Performer" by Lucier on CD, but I hadn't been able to find this song on Spotify to hear it. But it was on here. I like it a whole lot, and just bought the CD from CD Universe because of this clip. THANK YOU!
I was scrolling down to do the same. Alvin is such a beautiful man. A very deep listener. Thank you, I had no idea this video existed. I've only read about this. Happy day, Carlos. Thank you. Peace be with you!
Could it actually amplify anything meaningfully in 1965? Seems this would work better today when we have comparatively better wave detectors that people can put on. Like for example that toy that came out some years ago where you could put a thing on your head and then focus your thought for the toy to do something.
I know this is an old comment but Lucier's purpose was not to try and control the instruments. He designed it to read his brainwaves and translate this into percussive pulses. He was more interested in what would happen by chance than trying to control it.
