(Tributo a John Cage) Un esperimento rock realizzato da Lokke Highstein e prodotto da John Cale. Consiste nella rappresentazione della colonna sonora dell’esposizione “Il Suono Rapido delle Cose”, organizzata per la XLV Biennale di Venezia, in collaborazione con Achille Bonito Oliva. Questo evento terminò il 10 ottobre 1993, ma l’album continua ad esistere e a rappresentare gli sforzi di numerose persone e istituzioni, il cui impegno e devozione ha permesso di diffondere ad un pubblico vasto la filosofia del Maestro Cage, conservandone Spirito e Pensiero.
