Keiko Prince was born and educated in Tokyo, Japan. She was invited to join CAVS, MIT in 1971 to work on the Charles River Project — revitalisation of the then deteriorated river environ as a public open space. She conceived Water-Maze, Wind-Belt, Weightless-Tunnel — (culminating in The Shelter: sun-water dial), these all were generated and transfigured with natural forces, and each had formed as a component of the environ as a sustainable cyclical entity. Supreme Connections presents Maryanne Amacher's Mini Sound Series Sonic Acts and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam commissioned Supreme Connections to create a new interpretive, episodic iteration of Maryanne Amacher's Mini Sound Series. Amacher (1938–2009) was a pioneering American composer known for impressive architecturally staged sound works and groundbreaking research-based acoustic art designed to awaken our psycho-acoustic responses to sound. Supreme Connections is a loose formation of former Maryanne Amacher collaborators. The line-up for Sonic Acts consists of the composers, musicians and researchers Amy Cimini, Bill Dietz, Kabir Carter, Keiko Prince, Sergei Tcherepnin, Stefan Tcherepnin and Woody Sullender. They joined forces in 2012 to engage with issues associated with the posthumous life of Amacher work. Under the name Supreme Connections (the top secret lab featured in Amacher's unrealised treatment, Intelligent Life) they developed an approach to the artist’s radical oeuvre, respecting its complex conception. Recreating Amacher's methodology instead of incongruously faithful reenactments, Supreme Connections has created a series of large-scale ‘hearing as if’ installations at the Funkhaus (Berlin), Tate Modern, and in the Bienal de São Paulo. www.jennifergabrys.net
