FOR PHILIP GUSTON DE MORTON FELDMAN: ENSAIOS E PERFORMANCE – OU COMO SOBREVIVER A QUATRO HORAS DE MÚSICA
No full textThis article focuses on the work “For Philip Guston” by American composer Morton Feldman, a four-hour piece which I performed in concert with percussionist Steven Schick and flutist Kathleen Gallagher. I discuss here some of the challenges that we faced, and my reflections on the strategies we used during rehearsals and on the experience of performing it. This paper relates the practical experience of rehearsals and performance of a unique 20th Century chamber piece, although the strategies discussed here can be applied to other contemporary works with similar challenges.
Keywords: Performance; Morton Feldman; Philip Guston; Contemporary music; American composers.Este artigo tem como objeto de estudo a obra For Philip Guston (1984) do compositor norte-americano Morton Feldman, uma peça de mais de quatro horas de duração que apresentei em recital com o percussionista Steven Schick e a flautista Kathleen Gallagher em 2004. Discuto aqui os desafios que enfrentamos, minhas reflexões sobre as estratégias de ensaios que utilizamos e sobre a experiência de performance. Este texto é um relato de uma experiência prática de ensaios e performance, o qual enfoca uma peça singular do repertório camerístico do século XX, entretanto as estratégias aqui apresentadas podem ser extrapoladas para outras obras do repertório contemporâneo com desafios semelhantes.

Morton Feldman und die Maler der New York School
No full textDas Schaffen des amerikanischen Komponisten Morton Feldman (1926-87) erfährt Anfang der 50er Jahre eine radikale Veränderung. Nicht nur die Einführung der graphischen Notation, sondern auch die Übertragung künstlerischer Strategien wie das 'All-over' der Malerei in seine Musik werden festgestellt. Um Begründungen für diese Veränderung zu suchen, soll das Leben in New York dargestellt werden, in dem Morton Feldman die Maler der New York School kennen lernt, die ihn nachweislich stark beeinflussten. Die Bedeutung des Komponisten Edgard Varèse für Morton Feldman soll zudem herausgearbeitet werden, wie auch die Parallelen zwischen Musik und Malerei der New York School.
Ein zentrales Thema der Diplomarbeit ist die Analyse ausgewählter Werke von Morton Feldman zwischen 1950 und 1984. Feldman wollte den Eindruck, den die 'nicht-relationale' Malerei beim Betrachter hinterlässt, in seine Musik übertragen. Dies erreicht er durch den unbestimmten Parameter der Tonhöhe in der graphischen Notation (Projections und Intesections) oder mit Hilfe der freigestellten Tondauern in der free-durational-Form (For Franz Kline und Piano Piece (To Philip Guston)). Im Spätwerk (Rothko Chapel und For Philip Guston) forderte Feldman den Zuhörer durch Werke, deren Länge die einer 'normalen' Komposition um ein mehrfaches überschreiten, heraus. Auch die Filmmusiken Jackson Pollock und De Kooning werden analysiert.
In Exkursen werden Positionen zu den Gattungsgrenzen diskutiert, darunter jene von Theodor W. Adorno, welcher in der Abstraktion die Annäherung der Gattungen sieht. Ergebnis der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit ist die Feststellung, dass der Transfer künstlerischer Strategien der Malerei in die Musik Morton Feldmans erst durch die Abstraktion generiert wird
Philip Auslander: Can we conserve performance?
No full textIn this conversation, Philip Auslander discusses the role of documentation for preserving and conserving performances, providing data, and accessibility. For him, conservation extends beyond archiving, involving embodied knowledge and the reactivation of performances. Retrospective documentation includes reenactment and modifying existing records, referencing past performances. A single iconic image can capture a performance, evoking the event beyond a static representation. Auslander also addresses the question of authorship in performance documentation, which has evolved over time, with photographers and videographers increasingly asserting their artistic authorship. Decisions about which performances are deemed significant and worth documenting and preserving shape the formation of a canon. Paradoxically, the complete vanishing of a performance is conceptually elusive since any evidence or traces of its occurrence will prevent its total disappearance. Even forgotten performances leave behind remnants that prevent their complete erasure. As the conversation evolves, we discuss how iterations shed new light on performance, enhancing its meaning

Diversity in Massively Multi-agent Systems: Concepts, Implementations, and Normal Accidents
No full textCoordination for Transportation as a Service (TaaS) can be implemented on a spectrum, ranging from independent agents communicating exclusively through market exchanges to hybrid market/hierarchy approaches fixed hierarchical control systems. An overview of each approach is described and a detailed description of recent work in simulating a hybrid solution is presented. The use of diversity as a potential approach to reduce the impact of catastrophic Normal Accidents is discussed
Towards ‘a beautiful land’: Compositional strategies and influences in Five Panels (no.5)
No full textFive Panels (no.5) is an experimental electronic composition that takes as its starting point the classic (post-1949) abstract paintings of Mark Rothko. As a result, and in contrast to my previous works, Five Panels (no.5) is more minimal regarding its gestural content and makes less use of teleologically oriented structuring processes. The work focuses more on the details within each sound and on subtle shifts in timbre and acoustic space. This article will cover the influence of Rothko and abstract expressionism more broadly on the work. The spiritual quality of Rothko’s paintings is also investigated. As essentially abstract works, I am keen to understand how Rothko’s works, and, as an extension to this, abstract music can communicate a sense of spirituality with specific reference to Five Panels (no.5). Finally, the immersive quality of Rothko’s classic paintings, due both to their size and the painters obsessive control over the conditions and placement of the paintings in galleries, is discussed in relation to the use of surround sound in Five Panels (no.5)
