This video was recorded in the John Cage's exhibition at Macba. It is one of the installations featured in the exhibition; HPSCHD. I have posted it as a reminder of the pleasure experienced in that room.
"HPSCHD, a collaboration between John Cage and Lejaren Hiller, first performed on May 16, 1969 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, called for 7 harpsichords playing randomly-processed music by Mozart and other composers, 51 tapes of computer-generated sounds, approximately 5,000 slides of abstract designs and space exploration, and several films, all of which were performed or presented simultaneously in an asynchronous and exuberant anarchy of activity."
