MICROPHONE was a work David Tudor created for the Pepsi Pavilion in 1970 using acoustical feedback in the Pavilion space between two shotgun microphones and the 37 speakers in the dome.  This feedback was modulated through the sound processing system designed by Gordon Mumma. A second version was created at Mills College using multiple spaces. 


MICROPHONE was the basis for a dance commission “Dinosaur Parts” (1974) with the Viola Farber Dance Company.  A video of the dance titled “Brazos River” was a collaboration with Viola Farber (choreography), Robert Rauschenberg (sets), and David Tudor (music).
