CORAX is a new BIRDCALLS phone featuring the sounds of BlackBirds. Freshly hatched in June 2024, it alights at ConcordArt in Massachusetts June 13 - August 11, 2024.
CORAX houses close to 40 minutes of audio mixes (and remixes) in a mysterious 1951 bakalite phone. This project features vocals of Maria Elena Montero (VP of DC Bird Alliance). Classic field recordings — some almost as old as the phone housing itself — licensed from the Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
