Resorts World transcription for recorded voices by russell perkins published on 2020-12-11T13:14:51Z *3 min sample. If possible, please listen with headphones* I collected audio recordings by walking through the slot machine floor of the Resorts World Casino in Queens, the only casino within New York City limits. After transcribing these recordings into a series of musical scores, I collaborated with singers who specialize in extended vocal techniques to interpret this material for vocal ensemble. The sound from each speaker corresponds to a different score. The length of the work matches the number of hours the casino is open each day. The speakers are mounted on individual tripods, so that the listener can walk among them.
