Entrance to Exit Re-enacted (2013)

‘A smooth linear transition from white noise to sinus wave tone is broadcast. Title is announce at beginning and at end, but at end, title is announced by a tape played backward.’

For ‘Another Fluxconcert’ in Amsterdam, kept at NASA Amsterdam april 13 & 14 2013, I realised  a version of George Brecht‘s ‘Entrance to Exit’ (1965) in SuperCollider. Instructions shown above.

​

With 'Entrance to Exit', Brecht transposed his 1961 performance 'Word Event' onto film. The produced FLux Film No. 10 can be seen below, as well as a video impression of the 'Another Fluxconcert' event.

​

With George Maciunas himself stating that the piece actually has no beginning or ending, no front or back, I reversed the given instructions.
