In New York, I'm playing in a church, solo, doing instrumental stuff. There's talk of doing more, like, installation-type things with some of the specimen horns I've played through. Just filling a room in a museum with these horn-speaker sculptures and then making loops that run all day, and you walk around the room and sort of mix the sound by where you stand. That's all way in the future, but that kind of stuff is a different way of thinking about performing.
Andrew BirdMy favorite literature to read is fairly dry history. I like the framework, and my imagination can do the rest.
Andrew BirdWell, my main instrument is violin, but I think of myself as a songwriter who happens to play violin.
