The NY Phonographers Meetings are series of annual concerts presenting un-processed or raw location and field recordings in a collaborative immersive listening environment.
The group of performers meets each year as a part of a growing worldwide interest in making field recordings of everyday sounds and unusual sonic events with inexpensive, high-fidelity portable recorders. The concert’s focus is to present un-manipulated recordings in their true form, each participant mixing 10 minutes of sound, one into the next, creating a long duration immersive listening environment.
The program will begin with an opening sound installation from Ben Owen. Additional participants include: Tom Mulligan, Albert Casais, Seth Cluett, Richard Garet, Andy Graydon, Bruce Tovsky, Mike Rosenthal, Gill Arno, Stephen Moore, Ben Owen, Scott Smallwood, Sawako, Michael Farley, and Michelle Nagal.
