“Walk into the bright white, upstairs gallery at MAAM — the MassArt Art Museum — and you’ll encounter 40 black speakers on 40 lanky, straw-colored wooden stands. They’re spread out in a wide circle that fills the airy room. In the ring’s center, two simple benches flank a torso-height pedestal. This piece, titled “40 Part Part,” looks like a minimalist sculpture. But step inside and you’ll notice two cables poking out of the pedestal’s top.

The wired and wireless connectors are artist, writer and DJ Jace Clayton’s invitations for visitors to activate his sound installation with songs from their cellphones.”
