MAY I HAVE THE PIANO DELIVERED TO YOU? was a studio residency and evolving installation in the AIR Studio at Artisphere in the Rosslyn District of Arlington from August of 2013 until April of 2014.

PRELIMINARY DECONSTRUCTION took place at the American University Museum in Washington DC as a three-week-long performance between April and May of 2013. The pieces were moved to Artisphere for further
development in August of 2013. The small musical sculpture in the video below was built and shipped to Walter's sister, Susan Custis, thus completing the exchange. The remainder of the instrument is still being processed into new works.
