12h30 à 14h, B-379 : Pedro Rebelo
Résumé : This presentation addresses challenges and opportunities posed by the design and production of network performance from the point of view of collaborative creative work. I examine strategies that, while referring to the network as a new medium for performance, make use of concepts from dramaturgy to better understand the relationships between artists, audiences and media. The presentation introduces performance works that have explored compositional and improvisational practice in a network context through the development of different modes of participation. These include communication strategies such as notation as well as open streaming platforms which invite participants to join distributed performance settings. The presentation draws on a commission by Quasar quartet as an example of notation that addresses specificity and flexibility.
14h à 15h30, B-399 : Jesper Nordin
"Aftermath" - composing with and for electronics
The use of electronics in music today can be totally integrated with acoustical instruments. Jesper Nordin will show his computer environment for « controlled improvisation » using a drawing tablet to the computer which he uses to « draw » his music. He will also show how he works with the combination of acoustical instruments and live electronics in ways where the electronic sounds are acoustical and the musicians are playing on the electronics.
