Commissioned by the New Sound New York festival, Martyn Ware and Vince Clarke created a three-dimensional soundscape that played in Charles Morrow’s immersive audio installation Sound Cube.
Illustrious’ composition was one of twelve to be played in the Sound Cube, alongside such other artists and composers as Olivia Block, Shelley Hirsch, Miya Masaoka, Steve McCaffrey, Charles Morrow, Phill Niblock, Michael J. Schumacher, Scanner, Stephen Vitiello, and Pamela Z.
The installation was curated by Charles Morrow, Stephen Vitiello and Christina Yang, and featured as part of New Sound New York, a citywide festival of performances, installations, and public dialogues featuring new works by sound artists who are exploring fresh connections among music, architecture and the visual arts.
