More about the book
Exploring the transformative musical landscape of New York from 1958 to 1978, this work delves into how avant-garde musicians like David Tudor, Ornette Coleman, and the Velvet Underground challenged conventional norms. Their dissonant and complex soundscapes served as metaphysical portals, reflecting a collective quest for identity beyond ideological constraints. By engaging with collaborators such as John Cage and Andy Warhol, these artists not only redefined music but also confronted societal expectations regarding gender and race, capturing the essence of a pivotal cultural moment.
