Sound Art
This piece is titled "W _ _ _ Conceptual Radio Pledge Drive". The underscore dashes indicate the breathing in and breathing out of meditation practice and form the non letters of the radio station's usual call letters.
Originally conceived as an installation piece with the boombox floating in an enclosed aquarium on a metal stand, the artwork has now been preserved in video demonstration. The artist welded the metal stand and constructed a thick glass aquarium box as well as a netted cover on top. Powerful magnets were concealed within the boombox and below the bottom of the aquarium to essentially float the boombox in mid-air. Joe also soldered and constructed his own am radio frequency transmitter in hopes to actually broadcast the audio to the boombox from a remote or detached and hidden location.
