A new kind of score: rethinking the relationship between composer, performer and technology

这种基于实践的研究将探索新的途径，为不确定的组成，使可能的平板电脑为基础的分数阅读器。我要问的问题是，新的创新是否能使作曲家、表演者和技术之间的关系变得更加流畅和动态。我将制作一个作品集，并与表演者进行对话，并记录他们的反馈。关键的研究问题包括：应该用什么标准来评估表演的成功？什么方法是最有成效的表演者准备？如何使表演者能够使用这项技术？这项研究将朝着结构和内容更细致入微的整合方向发展，同时在当代网络技术和设备的背景下，对有关分数本体论的公认观点提出有益且具有挑衅性的挑战。

This practice-based research will explore new avenues for indeterminate composition made possible by tablet based score readers. I will be asking whether new innovations enable the development of a more fluid and dynamic relationship between composer, performer and technology. I will be producing a portfolio of works as well as initiating a dialogue with performers and documenting their feedback.Key research questions include: What criteria should be used to assess the success of performances? What approaches to performer preparation are most fruitful? How can the technology be made accessible to performers? This research will move towards a more nuanced integration of structure and content while usefully and provocatively challenging received ideas about the ontology of scores within the context of contemporary networked technology and devices.
