I am sitting in the room with the longest echo

Das nächste Re-enactment (könnte man auch ein ganzes Online-Festival draus machen):

Trevor Cox hat Alvin Lucies Klassiker I am sitting in a room in dem Raum mit dem mutmaßlich längsten Nachhall realisiert.

A rendition of Alvin Lucier’s I am Sitting in a Room played using the Inchindown Oil Tanks that hold the Guinness World Record for having the ‚longest echo‘. The text passes through the oil tanks multiple times, until all that remains are strange tones created by this long feedback loop. The immense reverberance of the oil tanks give a very different feel to the early evolving sound compared to renditions using more conventional concert halls.

Umgekehrt wär’s auch interessant, das Stück in einem maximal schallschluckenden Raum aufzuführen.
