One in a series of programs produced by Clark Coolidge that feature the works of late 20th century poets, sound poets, and authors. This recording presents two tape works by Vito Acconci. Coolidge quotes the particular circumstances behind each work given by the author. Acconci’s performance of “A Tape Situation Using Running, Counting, Exhaustion” was recorded in New York’s Central Park in 1969. The second piece presented on the program, “A Tape Situation Using A Ball, Rolling, Stopping, Walking Over, Position”, was recorded on August 13, 1969 in a New York loft.
