"Nothing in My Pockets was originally a sound diary, conceived for the Atelier de Création Radiophonique de France Culture, that was kept between July 4th and October 4th, 2003. In that new and innovative experimentation, Laurie Anderson unfolded her daily life as an artist, microwaved it and presented herself as more than a diarist: she became an electronic sound architect of her own existence. The sound diary ... also offers unpublished visual documents through the pages of a book. The opportunity is for an intimate journey into the personal universe of the artist through a series of daily leaps: from her New York studio in Tribeca to the numerous travels and landscapes she crossed over the whole three month period." -- back cover.
