Jeff Williams
February 11, 2025

With songs from the Theatre of Eternal Music, the Stooges, and more, artist Jeff Williams brings a drone-inspired mixtape to the Selection Committee. This open, meditative, and recursive mode of music making rhymes with Williams’ art practice which deals with themes of time, environment, and the passage of materials through both of those elements.

Whether he’s tracing thousands of feet of fluorescent yellow cable through a vast empty industrial building or throwing rolls of aluminum flashing down the foothills of Mount Washington, Williams’ lyrical work inscribes lines in space over time. We travel from La Monte Young’s Dream House in TriBeCa to a subbasement of the American Academy in Rome to a cement culvert in Austin, Texas to the wild-boar ensorcelled farmland of rural France. Join us for a delightful conversation and meet some of Williams’ friends and collaborators along the way.

1. On the Prowl, Paris
   
2. Raise the Bells, The Folk Implosion
   
3. Trance #2, Angus LacLise, Tony Conrad, John Cale
   
4. We Will Fall, The Stooges
   
5. Dopesmoker, Sleep
   
6. Big Church [megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért], Sun O)))
   
7. The Fare to Get There, Do Make Say Think
   
8. The Dance No. 1, Laraaji with Brian Eno
   
9. RF5, Ben Vida
   
10. Meinhof, Tania Cross
