The boxed set “Alvin Lucier. I am sitting in a room. Archival Recordings 1969–2019” was released on the occasion of Alvin Lucier’s 90th birthday on May 14th, 2021. - Limited edition of 500 hand-numbered units - 180g Vinyl - Over 235 min playtime - 124 page book Jan Thoben, Bernhard Rietbrock and Trevor Saint, the editors of this publication, compiled ten archival recordings of Lucier’s most well-known composition as well as a 124-page book containing numerous articles and Mary Lucier's complete Polaroid Image Series: ROOM. For the first time, this collection of recordings represents the widely unknown genealogy of what is today regarded as one of the most important experimental compositions of the 20th century. The editors were able to unearth previously unreleased archival material ranging from Lucier’s first preliminary attempt to realize this piece in 1969 to his last performance of "I am sitting in a room" in Riga, Latvia in 2019.
