{"value"=>"<p>Materials related to Amacher's multimedia installations are held in series I. The series is arranged into three subseries that date from the 1960s to 2009, comprising her major career-spanning installations: <span class=\"title\">City-Links</span>, <span class=\"title\">Music For Sound-Joined Rooms</span>, and <span class=\"title\">Mini-Sound Series</span>. There is also a fourth subseries of images and notes, which contains installation photographs and papers either not attributed to a specific project, or attributed to multiple projects. The series arrangement mirrors how Amacher described her own installation work, and is ordered chronologically to reflect her career trajectory. More information about how these installations fit within Amacher's career, and the ways in which she wrote about them, are found in series VI.</p>"}
