From SFJAZZ:
"Laurie Anderson presents an incredible drone-based sonic experience
utilizing a number of historic guitars from her late husband Lou Reed's
collection. This installation, curated by Reed's former guitar
technician Stewart Hurwood, places the instruments in an arrangement
against a group of amplifiers so that their tuned feedback creates an
enveloping drone of harmonics that shifts and changes depending on the
audience’s location within the grand space of Grace Cathedral. Further,
the Cathedral’s natural 7-second echo will add immeasurably to the
profound Doppler effect the audience experiences as they move around the
space. Anderson herself will perform live with violist Eyvind Kang and
saxophonist Ulrich Krieger."

- Laurie Anderson: SFJAZZ Resident Artistic Director (Nov 28–Dec 2, 2018)
- The audience was encouraged to bring instruments and participate in the performance
