位于贝尔法斯特女王大学声波艺术研究中心的“无障碍表演”研究小组（PwB）一直在探索声波艺术实践和音乐即兴创作的潜力，以增强社会包容性。迄今为止，该小组主要侧重于研究活动，这些活动与通过使用数字技术为身体残疾人提供音乐即兴创作的包容性潜力有关。在本文中，我们讨论了我们的工作背后的批判性思维，它汇集了音乐制作的社会和连接功能，音乐即兴创作的开放和关系实践，以及利用开放，适应性和可访问的数字技术的技术解决方案。讨论了2015年至2018年期间发生的三个案例研究。在这篇文章中，我们认为，音乐即兴活动具有包容性的潜力，开放表演者，他们的乐器，不同背景和能力的人之间的建设性对话。此外，当我们反射性地接近我们的研究活动时，我们思考我们在大学研究人员和具有不同能力的音乐家之间进行包容性即兴创作时发现的矛盾，困境和学习点。
The ‘Performance without Barriers’ research group (PwB), based at the Sonic Arts Research Centre at Queen’s University Belfast has been exploring the potential of sonic arts practices and music improvisation for enhancing social inclusion. To date, the group has focused primarily on research activities related to the inclusive potential of providing access to music improvisation for people with physical disabilities via the use of digital technologies. In this paper we discuss the critical thinking behind our work which draws together the social and connective functions of music making, the open and relational practice of music improvisation, and technological solutions utilising open, adaptable and accessible digital technologies. Three case studies, taking place between 2015 and 2018, are discussed. In this article we argue that activities in music improvisation have inclusive potential for opening constructive dialogues between performers, their instruments, and people of different backgrounds and abilities. Furthermore, as we have approached our research activities reflexively, we ponder the contradictions, dilemmas and points of learning we have discovered when engaging in inclusive improvisation work between university researchers and musicians with diverse abilities.
