Before you would see the works of Cory Arcangel in a gallery, but now you can witness his attempt at playing COMPLETE Bruce Springsteen Born to Run Glockenspiel Addendum in Brooklyn! It’s always amusing and fun to watch Cory be Cory. Plus this will be his first ever attempt at playing the entire piece, that’s 42 minutes and a lot of chances for mistakes! To error is human, so let us see Cory be the best human he can be. There will also be video accompaniment, as well as a free CD.

Paul St. George has created an interesting backstory on the history and creation of this device. Two gigantic telescopes are set up, one in Brooklyn and the other in London, which will allow both sides to see each other in real time. How does he do it? He claims there is a tunnel connecting the two across the Atlantic and with the use of fiber optics and a few other things seeing the other city is possible. Its a strange and interesting interactive piece.
