The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Archives Research Residency
(2023)- Abstract
- Billy Klüver: Dawn again after 9 evenings
This project pries on Billy Klüver as a figure based on the relationship between artist and engineer in a specific context, also as a contingent form of two similar but different selves. It suggests various ways to understand the art-technology relationship through the central lens of his materials from RRF archives.

- With Bell Laboratories research scientist, Billy Klüver, Rauschenberg realized some of his most ambitious technological works, including the sound-producing sculptural environment, “Oracle” (1962–65), as well as “Soundings” (1968), a monumental light installation responsive to ambient sound. Both works were meant to be experienced by the audience spatially and appeal to the senses beyond the purely visual. In 1966, Rauschenberg and Klüver, together with artist Robert Whitman and engineer Fred Waldhauer, founded Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), New York, an organization that sought to make technology accessible to artists by arranging collaborations with engineers.
