Untitled is a 1967 by Paul Sharits, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows quick, messy notes about sound experiments. There are doodles of buckets, speakers, and wires, with arrows and scribbled instructions like *"drag mike"* and *"feedback."* Some parts look like flowcharts, with loops and boxes labeled *"stereo"* and *"recycle."* The handwriting is tight and crossed out, with a few diagrams of speakers in a line. The notes focus on how sound changes when moved through space—like dragging a microphone over sand or under a rug. It’s all about testing how sound behaves in different setups, almost like a science experiment for art. If this interests you, look up Paul Sharits.
Paul Jeffrey Sharits was a visual artist, best known for his work in experimental, or avant-garde filmmaking, particularly what became known as the structural film movement, along with other artists such as Tony Conrad, Hollis Frampton, and Michael Snow.
