Sound Installation

Four Minutes of Funk, 2001, digital print, CD player, CD, keyboard speaker.


A found collection of disco singles from 1975-76 is digitally reconfigured. All thirty are heard playing simultaneously from a loudspeaker at the foot of a gridded image of the singles. The original DJ owner has written the title and band in capitals on each record sleeve. The print recalls the grid structure of some abstract paintings.
