Unisons
Dennis Bathory-Kitsz
About this work: I am an inveterate builder of unique instruments. When I received a few identical tuning forks in the mail as a publicity gag, and came upon a few hard disk platters, a piece was born. Bells can replace the forks and platters, though they didn't when Il Gruppo Nuke Jitters premiered this last gasp of simple minimalism.
