Book

Steve's vinyl : an artist project / by Cathy Busby.

Busby, Cathy, 1958- (author.).

Summary:

”Steve’s Vinyl was an art installation and performance giveaway of the nearly two-hundred albums left to me by my late brother, Steve Busby (1953-1993). It took place at the Khyber Centre for the Arts. Steve was a gay man who died of AIDS-related illness. I planned Steve’s Vinyl for Dec 3, 2011 to coincide with World AIDS Day.I had kept these record albums in cardboard boxes, neither playing nor looking at them. After 18 years, I orchestrated this celebration to activate the albums, dispersing them and turning the weight of this collection into lightness. It was a tribute to Steve and his varied tastes in music, men, and identities. The Steve’s Vinyl book (2013) documents this event."--http://www.cathybusby.ca/stevesvinyl.php (retrieved November 30, 2015)
