William Basinski - Disintegration Loop 1.1 DVD (Vectors,2004)

Publicado el 30 abril 2011 por Poleonmars

Con ganas de escuhar su nuevo album, "Hymns of Oblivion"que en este link muestra que posiblemente haya un cambio radical en su música (la portadita da un miedo atroz), he decidido repasar algunos de sus discos y como no, siempre hay que pararse en "Disintegration Loops". Este dvd aparecía, sin ser casualidad, el 11 de septiembre de 2004. Una descripción más exacta del material dice así:
"Disintegration Loop 1.1 consists of one static shot of lower Manhattan billowing smoke during the last hour of daylight on September 11th, 2001, set to the decaying pastoral tape loop Basinski had recorded in August, 2001. Shot from Basinski's roof in Williamsburg Brooklyn, this is an actual documentary of how he and his neighbors witnessed the end of that fateful day. It is a tragically beautiful cinema verite elegy dedicated to those who perished in the atrocities of September 11th, 2001."
