Between 1966 and 1967 there were a few amazing conversation between Morton Feldman and John Cage broadcast on WBAI.
At one point they complain about the new transistor radios that the kids are bringing to the beach and all the music that is now heard everywhere in public.
Cage says (to summarize) instead of complaining, he wrote a piece for not one, but 12 radios...
I've been photographing free newspaper boxes for many years (usually with a regular digital camera, but now sometimes with a new iPhone).
The boxes are ugly, clutter the sidewalk and public space, etc. etc. but if one looks closely there is beauty and sometimes funny, political, social information there...

Photos made in Manhattan, Chelsea and Midtown South...

Thanks
