Year Long Loop

Raymond Pettibon reading Pechmann from The Inquisitive Musician
Recorded between October 2004 and September 2005, Year Long Loop documents the sound and view as experienced from the vantage point of a ridge in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Mt. Washington. A cross between John Cage's 4'33 and Andy Warhol's Empire, the full length version of this homage to structuralist film consists of twelve two hour long segments, a continuous 24 hour loop that cycles through time. This shortened version cuts the shot length of the original, allowing for the year to be experienced in 2 hours instead of 24.

The 2 hour version was completed in 2009, the 24 hour version is being completed this year.
