In connection with the Zimmerli’s exhibition The Body Implied: The Vanishing Figure in Soviet Art, Paul D. Miller (aka DJ Spooky) will give a multimedia presentation called “Anthropocene Blues – The Peace Symphony.”
This presentation draws on several weeks of interviewing and reacting to the stories of some of the last survivors of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Miller made the series of conversations and dialogues into several classical music, hip hop, and electronic music compositions that he calls “acoustic portraits” of the stories.
This presentation will be followed by audience Q&A, moderated by Stephanie Dvareckas, who curated The Body Implied as Dodge Avenir Fellow. There will be a light reception after the event.
Paul D. Miller, aka DJ Spooky, is currently Artist in Residence at Yale University Center for Collaborative Arts and Media (2023-2024, extended). He is a composer, multimedia artist, and writer whose work engages audiences in a blend of genres, global culture, and environmental and social issues. Miller has collaborated with an array of recording artists, including Ryuichi Sakamoto, Metallica, Chuck D from Public Enemy, Steve Reich, and Yoko Ono amongst many others. His 2018 album, DJ Spooky Presents: Phantom Dancehall, debuted at #3 on Billboard Reggae.
