On today's show, I talk to artist and musician C. Spencer Yeh. Originally from Taiwan, Spencer's family moved to Canada when he was young, and later, Spencer grew up in the Rust Belt. As a musician, Spencer has released over twenty albums on numerous labels, many under the name Burning Star Core, and a number of improvisational collaborations under his own name - including collabos with everyone from saxophonist Paul Flaherty to avant-garde filmmaker and composer Tony Conrad. As an artist, his work has been featured internationally at the MoMA, the ICA Philadelphia, Kinomuzeum at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, the Liverpool Biennial, and in many other exhibitions. Yeh also collaborated with Triple Canopy for their contribution to the Whitney Biennial in 2014, and a collection of voice-based works, Solo Voice I - X, will be published by Primary Information this year.This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter.
