Description: "Watch a clip from the video of Thomas Wilfred's recorded Lumia Composition Opus 147 'Multidimensional" (1957). Though best seen in person, this high definition excerpt offers a glimpse into Wilfred's extraordinary composition of light, color, and form that transforms slowly overtime, exhibiting a delicate array of ephemeral beauty." -- from the youtube page for the video, 2/11/2015

Description: "Wilfred gave his first performances on this new instrument in New York in 1922 and toured with the Clavilux in US and Europe often drawing audiences in the thousands during the 1920s. In the 1930s, he shifted his focus from performance to composition for his recently invented Lumia box, an automated device that looks similar to a television but functions like a player-piano. The Lumias slowly morphing light patterns unfolded for weeks without repeating. This shift from performance to exhibition, recontextualized Wilfreds work from the domain of music to the domain of art. Edward A. Shanken, Art and Electronic Media (Phaidon, 2009)." -- from the website, 2/13/2015
