Focusing on New York City, this title examines five disparate events: the New York Philharmonic's disastrous performance of John Cage's Atlas Eclipticalis; Henry Flynt's demonstrations against the downtown avant-garde; Charlotte Moorman's Avant Garde Festival; founding of the Jazz Composers Guild; and, the emergence of Iggy Pop.
