Something for Nothing
The Executive Director of the John Cage Trust will give a short talk on John Cage, Gertrude Stein, Zen, silence, nothing, and everything, followed by a performance of “Lecture on Nothing,” Cage’s landmark performance text.
Dr. Jeffrey Lependorf, a composer, musician, and visual artist, also serves as Executive Director of the John Cage Trust and directs the Art Omi: Music International Musicians Residency, a collaborative music-making program he created. He is additionally a certified master of the shakuhachi, a traditional Japanese bamboo flute. He has performed, and his music has been performed, around the globe—literally, in fact: a recording of his "Night Pond" for solo shakuhachi was launched into space when the shuttle Atlantis took off on May 15, 1997 and remained for a year aboard the Russian space station Mir.
