| | Three pair of speakers, mounted high and low on the Mattress Factory, are aimed in various directions. From each set of speakers come a distinct element of the music Julius has composed for the space. He describes his work in architectural terms. It is as high as the building, and fills the entire lot adjacent to it. Within that volume, he has created rooms. As the visitor moves from one room to another – either vertically or horizontally – the experience of the work changes. |  |
| | Two speakers, suspended by thin wire from the ten foot ceiling, almost touch the ground. |  |
|  | They are coated with a brilliant red, powdered pigment that vibrates with the ever-shifting music emanating from them. |
