CHILE•NEW YORK•AfghanIRAQ (34:00) is a visual-sonic meditation on his Wall of 400 Faces. Portions of this massive work were first presented on 42nd Street, NYC during the month of May 1980 with accompanying sound environment created by saxophonist Julius Hemphill and percussionist Warren Smith. Sections of it have since been installed in more than forty public spaces across the U.S., and the entire work is now on permament installation on the outside walls & grounds of Schlanger's studio in New Rochelle, NY. This first DVD chapter combines video capture of the entire work, in multiple seasons, interwoven with music created live with the installation over the years.
