Millsounds, 2009

One minute of audio recorded in an industrial mill, time-stretched to one hour.

This project was made possible by a 2009 Artist Residency at The Oriole Mill, Hendersonville, NC.

Additional thanks to Stephan Michaelson and Michael Vallera.

Included in the exhibition Anne Wilson: Wind/Rewind/Weave at the Knoxville Museum of Art.

Anne Wilson: Wind/Rewind/Weave is an exhibition organized by the Knoxville Museum of Art, installed by Wilson to investigate the crisis of production and skill based textile labor. Included is Rewinds, a new work created entirely in glass; video documentation of Wind-Up: Walking the Warp, a 2008 performance in Chicago; and a large site-specific project, Local Industry, that takes the form of an active weaving/winding factory set up in the museum space. Run over the course of several months, this project will involve the Knoxville community in the collaborative production of a unique bolt of cloth.
