{"value"=>"<p>The Clippings and Interviews subseries holds newspaper and magazine clippings, as well as occasional press releases, covering Amacher's career from the 1960s to the 2000s. A set of clippings from the 1950s is also included, focused on local events when Amacher was a teenager. Clippings largely consist of reviews, features, profiles, and advertisements. A small set of recordings of radio interviews accompany the clippings.</p> <p>The 1960s clippings detail Amacher's first <span class=\"title\">City-Links</span> installation in Buffalo, New York, and her emerging status as an avant-garde composer. Clippings from the 1970s reveal such milestones as her collaborations with John Cage and Merce Cunningham, continued <span class=\"title\">City-Links</span> installations, and first performances at The Kitchen in New York City. The 1980s clippings include reviews of Amacher's new <span class=\"title\">Music for Sound-Joined Rooms</span> and <span class=\"title\">Mini-Sound Series</span> projects, with emphasis on her Capp Street and DAAD residencies.</p> <p>The 1990s and 2000s clippings cover Amacher's performances and installations in the United States and internationally. A large amount of press pertains to Amacher's 1999 album, <span class=\"title\">Sound Characters (Making the Third Ear)</span>, including reviews, year-end lists, and a few profiles of Amacher published in advance of the album's release. Of particular interest is an extensive 1992 interview with Amacher in <span class=\"title\">Mondo 2000</span>, which is held in box 153, folder 2.</p> <p>Separate files for press kits, press quotes, and images used for press releases are ordered at the end of the subseries. These materials mostly date from the 1980s and 1990s, with emphasis on Amacher's work in Europe and Japan.</p> <p>The interviews with Amacher are from the 1970s and 1980s, and mostly feature discussions about her current installations. Interviews were broadcast in Berkeley, California; Buffalo, New York; Chicago, Illinois; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.</p>"}
