About Henry Jacobs
Henry Jacobs is a sound artist and improviser par excellence. His influential recordings as well as collaborative projects resonate with an irreverent sense of humor and a love for musics of the world. From the early 1950s into the 1970s, Jacobs experimented with tape music, staged the early surround sound and visual spectacle Vortex, and developed an array of absurd characters that would pop up as crank callers, relaxation coaches, or upside-down smiling instructors.
