‘Music For Reliquary House’ is reconstituted audio from the Reliquary House installation -- a collaboration between Daniel Lopatin, also known as Oneohtrix Point Neverand video artist Nate Boyce. The original installation envisioned the modernist sculptures of David Smith, Anthony Caro, Isamu Noguchi, and Tony Smith as a series of hallucinatory informatic assaults. It was performed on December 17th at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Each piece represented here is a segment of a larger piece consisting of a satirical, informatic soundscape which provided background on the sculptor.

Lopatin commented on the project: “For the purpose of this recording I stripped out the narrative sections, tweaked the mixes and added new instrumentation. The musical sections were created using a combination of virtual and hardware synthesizers and romplers, as well as processed text-to-speech recordings. This record does not contain any outsourced samples.”
