During the past decade, Los Angeles-based artist Doug Aitken has created innovative video art by fracturing the narrative structures of his films across multi-screen environments. In the spring of 2007, Doug Aitken: Sleepwalkers premiered as a monumental outdoor video projection onto seven facades of the Museum of Modern Art in midtown Manhattan. The silent story, told with exquisite imagery, chronicles the lives of five characters as they move through New York City. Sleepwalkers features a diverse cast of actors, including Academy Award-winner Tilda Swinton as an office worker; Donald Sutherland as a businessman; musician Chan Marshall (known by the stage name Cat Power) as a postal worker; New York City street drummer Ryan Donowho as a bike messenger; and musician and actor Seu Jorge as an electrician.

The Sleepwalkers Box is Doug Aitken's groundbreaking multi-screen film re-imagined as a tactile multimedia experience. In the spirit of multimedia editions of the past such as Andy Warhol's Index and the mid sixties journal Aspen, The Sleepwalkers Box is designed to encourage audiences to create their own multisensory experiences as they explore a kaleidoscopic universe of printed images, motion pictures, and audio recordings drawn from Doug Aitken's groundbreaking 2007 Museum of Modern Art public film installation.

The Sleepwalkers Box is an experimental collaboration between artist Doug Aitken, Princeton Architectural Press, and DFA Records.
