RUN-THROUGHS AND REHEARSALS Tue 7.5. – Tue 21.5. during the museum's opening hours From May 7 onward, "live speakers" will accompany visitors while they observe the rehearsals and run-throughs of Geoffrey Farmer's sculpture-play "Let's Make the Water Turn Black". The museums' interpreters will introduce and discuss the concepts of this kinetic sculpture, along with its compositional structures and computer-controlled systems. Touching on subjects that influenced Frank Zappa, like Edgar Varèse and Musique concrète, the speakers will reveal anecdotes and facts underlying his biography, and their role in shaping the work.
