text

The Whitney Museum's Bitstreams exhibition of sound art was one of a growing number of exhibitions that aims to expose the ever-altering links between sound art, DJing, music, multimedia and culture as a whole.

Aiming to transgress all the usual boundaries of such an exhibition, the Whitney's selection of artists is a rather complete one. Taking in the works of experimenters such as the Fluxus artist Toné from Japan, Gregor Asch (perhaps better known as DJ Olive The Audio Janitor), DISC and Jim O'Rourke, Bitstreams points to the fact that the digital realm, when used inventively, can truly produce some provocative results.

Featuring a selection of works from the exhibition, this double CD set is recommended for anyone interested in the notions of multimedia sound works, collage and electronic experimentation. Posted by Lawrence English at 15:47, 20 Sep 2001
