Stephen Prina & Christian Marclay — A Structural Analysis and Reconstruction of MS 7098; Record Without a Cover; and More Encores

A Structural Analysis and Reconstruction of MS 7098; Record Without a Cover; and More Encores

A collaborative work by Stephen Prina and Christian Marclay, this piece brings together two artists known for their conceptual engagement with music, sound, and the material history of recorded media. The title suggests a layered investigation of existing works—including Marclay's iconic *Record Without a Cover* and his compilation *More Encores*—submitted to structural analysis and reconstruction as a critical and artistic methodology. The work reflects both artists' shared interest in appropriation, archival logic, and the physical and cultural life of sound objects.
