Abstract:

'Hall's Crossing' refers to a place in the American West where natural rhythms collide with scenic cruisers and tour buses. 'Hall's Crossing' is an electronic 'see America,' set in a place where natural vistas and cultural myths overlap, a place where the canyon meets the road. Scenes of the Grand Canyon portray both the beauty of the area and its invasion by tourists. The tourists attempt to capture the imagery through the medium of photography. At one point a narrator, Dr. Giselda Benda, speaks a foreign language. The electronic and vocal score was composed by Meredith Monk. The work was broadcast as a segment of episode 609 (1990), and episode 301 (1993), of 'New Television.'
