Sound Observations is a quarterly performance and lecture series featuring experimental artists from around the nation. This recording features turntablist and DJ Maria Chavez, and vocalist and musician Christina Carter of The Charalambides on May 11, 2018. Maria and Christina's site specific works took place in the atrium of the Crosstown Concourse building, an old Sears Roebuck building retrofitted for art galleries, residential and commercial spaces. The result is echoing vocals and scratchy, vinyl sounds that swirl up a red staircase to the entrance of the stage.

“María Chavez’s work to me feels so savvy yet subtle. Incredibly developmental yet effortless. As a listener this piece in collaboration with artist Christina Carter facilitates my view of new angles.”
