Скачать или смотреть Azikiwe Mohammed, "First Excursions First Horizons," a High Line Performance

On June 5, 6, and 9, 2023, DJ Black Helmet aka Azikiwe Mohammed realized "First Excursions First Horizons," a new sound performance for the High Line. New York City-based musicians Taja Cheek, CX KIDTRONIK, and Peter Toussaint performed sets based on custom-made records made by Mohammed. The records hold recordings of sounds of the everyday Black experience and are played in Mohammed’s search for the less terrestrial sounds of Blackness. The work builds on Mohammed’s multidisciplinary practice that extends into sound and performance and activates the length of the park, creating an immersive and transformative experience.
