273 relics for john cage
DESCRIPTION
In August 2011, I asked Laura Kuhn, director of the John Cage Trust, to select a single item from the archives — something of significant value to John Cage during his life. She chose his mushroom-collecting basket. On August 22, at exactly 10:30 a.m., I took a single 12-megapixel photograph of the basket, which became the source material for 273 Relics for John Cage (A Likeness Is an Aid to Memory). Cage’s seminal work 4’33″ (1952) provides the core narrative structure.273 Relics for John Cage (A Likeness Is an Aid to Memory) [2011] is an installation of printed works and video that investigates chance, memory and the photographic image. It includes an edition of ten limited-edition books (digital print on paper, 294 pages, silver foil-stamping on linen, 5″ x 7″ each), a unique large- format photograph (archival pigment print on rag paper, surface-mounted to Plexiglas, 43″ x 51″), six limited-edition prints (silkscreen ink on paper, 20″ x 26″) and video.The book features 273 images, texts and other artifacts assembled and chosen by chance operations, including 160 photographs sampled from the single image of John Cage’s mushroom-collecting basket. The volume also includes 52 poems, generated and assembled by chance operations from Aristotle’s “On Memory and Recollection” (350 B.C), John Cage’s “Lecture on Nothing” (1961), M.E. Hard’s “The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise” (1908), and fragments of conversation recorded at the John Cage Trust on August 22, 2011.Each relic is numbered and refers to a single second of silence in 4’33″. At once a translational work, an experimental portrait and a performative tribute, 273 Relics for John Cage explores the impossibility of the image — dismantling the photograph to render it irrelevant, as it disappears. The viewer is left with faint traces of source material and the freedom to investigate phantom images, imagined narratives and other associations.http://soulellis.com/projects/johncage/TRANSCRIPT

PHOTOGRAPH
On August , , I drove to The John Cage Trust at Bard College.I had a morning appointment with Laura Kuhn, ounding trustee and
ongoing executive director. To prepare or the meeting, I asked Laura
to think o a single item rom the archive. Something that John Cage
knew o in his lie. I asked her not to reveal her selection to me until we
met in person. When I arrived, she retrieved the thing; she had chosen
John Cage’s mushroom collecting basket. I took a single photograph.
PIXELS
273 Relics or John Cage begins with the moment I captured the
-megapixel image o the basket. Each picture element (pixel) in
the digital photograph reerences its source (in this case, signicant
archival material). I one ascribes meaning to the photograph, then
each o its million pixels carries with it some raction o that
signicance. Every pixel inherits the memory o its origin. Every pixel,
a relic. At the scale o the close zoom, the relics reveal pure color.
These immersive color elds link to lost memory, but also point (paint)
to uture landscapes. They open and vibrate with possibility. Latent,unconscious, phantom imagery, embedded in the relics. Every pixel,
a photograph. Using chance operations, I generated 6 pixel
extractions rom the photograph o the mushroom basket.

TEXTS
I chose our texts to accompany the photographic relics.
Word extractions were selected and combined using chance operations.
The texts: Aristotle’s On Memory and Recollection (35 B.C.); John Cage’s
“Lecture on Nothing” (published in Silence: Lectures and Writings, 96);
M.E. Hard’s The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise (98); and ragments
o my conversation with Laura Kuhn and her assistant,recorded on August , at The John Cage Trust.
5 text-based relics were generated.
BOOK
Each second o time in John Cage’s 4'33" (95) becomes a page
in the book. This is the structure I inherited. Each page, a reliquary.
73 operations. 73 openings. 73 opportunities. Using chance
operations, I generated a score to design the book. The scoredetermined chapter breaks, contents or each page
(text, image or blank relic) and layout.
Each relic is numbered.
PERFORMANCE
Every reading o 273 Relics or John Cage is a perormance.
Using chance operations, select a set o pages. Determine a xed
duration or the reading o each page, not less than one minute and
no more than 4 minutes, 33 seconds. Whether text, image or blank,
each page in the set is perormed, in any order. Speak the text, speak
nothing or display images, or perorm any combination o these
actions, depending on the content o the particular page.
The perormance may be private or public.
