A project to digitize 400 audio recordings on reel-to-reel tapes made between 1952 and 1990 that feature artist interviews, panel discussions, poetry readings, and experimental music performances.

To support Guggenheim Listening: A Reel to Reel Project, to make 400 audio recordings made between 1952 and 1990 available to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum's visitors and to the public.  Once the reels are digitized and made public, we estimate that over 29,000 people will listen to the recordings.
