Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller's 'The Murder of Crows' is a surrealistic sound installation inspired in part by Goya's famous etching 'The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters.' This hallucinatory work depicts a man asleep with owls and bats swooping menacingly around his head; Cardiff and Miller's title also refers to the habit among crows of flocking to a dead crow and cawing collectively, often for over a day, in a 'crow funeral.' The installation is composed of 98 speakers that visually mimic the flocking crows and issue both ambient and musical sounds, and a desk (mimicing Goya) with a megaphone from which Cardiff's voice relays a series of dreams. This artist's book account of the projectas well as selected earlier projectsincludes documents, interviews with the artists, ornithological and literary texts referring to crows, plus a DVD and 3D reproductions with glasses.
