Vito Acconci - Waterways, Four Studies

Legendary performance artist Vito Acconci's 1971 piece, initially intended as soundtrack to his video of the same name, is close enough to sound poetry to merit inclusion in this run of posts. As you might imagine, his body-sound work was an influence of Canadian artists Christof Migone and Alexandre St.Onge, whose duo Undo performed their own "remix" version of the piece included after the original on this disc. Migone and St. Onge released this as a CD on their Squint Fucker Press label in 2001.
