Synopses & Reviews
1000 people watching a tractor concert in southern Sweden is only one event documented in this magnificently designed book. “Automatism of the Rotation” presents several of Johansson’s pieces of music written for automobiles: crescendo and -decrescendo—-elements of classical composing—find their way into a world of familiar sounds presented in a new light. Honking signals from cars, the sound of Harley Davidsons, windwheels and other sources of sound are being interpreted in a unique way.

Johannson is a musician, composer, and poet unlike any other. His avantgarde music is difficult to forget, which may be obvious given that many of his pieces are written for automobiles--included here.
