ESOPUS FALL 2015 EDITION PREVIEW (PODCAST)
from ESOPUS Hosted by ESOPUS
Each fall, ESOPUS creates a limited-edition artwork for its Premium subscribers. This fall's edition, "Three Types of Reading Ambiguity," is a multidisciplinary collaboration between musician Charles Bissell and contemporary artist Beth Campbell. A layered reflection on the differing meanings of “original” and “copy” in the visual arts and music — and a fascinating glimpse into the creative processes of Bissell and Campbell — it includes a custom-designed audio cassette containing a brand-new track from Bissell's band The Wrens on one side and a sonic interpretation of the song by Campbell on the other, as well as a 17 x 30" archival print of a new drawing by Campbell, a foldout poster of Bissell's lyrics for the song in their original format, and a download key to access music, videos, and other related material. This podcast, featuring interviews with Bissell and Campbell as well as excerpts from both tracks, documents in depth the process behind the edition, from Bissell’s initial conception for the song, written nearly seven years ago, to the final mixing of Campbell’s version in Bissell’s basement studio in late September.
