Taken from the record liner notes by Christian Marclay:
"From June 4th through July 16th 1989 the floor of one of the Shedhalle
galleries, Zurich, was covered with 3500 copies of a record titled FOOT-
STEPS. During the six weeks of the installation, people were invited to
walk on the records-willingly or not, they had to step on them to reach
the adjacent galleries where other sculptures were exhibited. The one-
sided record, containing the sopunds of footsteps, was recorded in Decem-
ber 1988 in the deserted hallways of the Clocktower (N.Y.), and in the
studios of Harmonic Ranch (N.Y.), where Keiko Uenishi's tap dancing was
mixed in. During the gallery installation the work could be looked at,
stepped on and walked through, but the recording was never heard, its
content merely suggested by its title. Over the course of six weeks, more
than 1500 visitors walked over the fragile floor, contributing to the
final composition by altering the records' surface with dirt and scrat-
ched. At the end of the exhibition, the records, which were attached to
the floor with double-sided tape, were removed. The record enclosed in
this package is one of them. When played, the footmark scratches and
recorded footsteps blend in a final aleatory composition of rhythmic
patterns, with as many variations as there are records. One thousand of
these records have been made available, apart from a special edition of
one hundred copies signed and numbered. Dedicated to the memory of Fred
Astaire."
