#2 Musical Collisions and Radical Creativity with Mark Applebaum.

Is the common practice tradition of composing, performing, and listening to music dead? And if not, how can we kill it?

Musical Collisions and Radical Creativity invites composers, performers, and composer-performers… and those engaged in composition, improvisation, or comprovisation… to examine the margins of musical culture in search of nonconformist, maverick, and eccentric creative impulses that radically expand the definition of art. This course is aimed at any creative musician whose reverence for musical convention is emboldened by an equal skepticism and dissatisfaction.

 

Selected topics include: ritual in performance; the boundaries of musical indeterminacy; the ephemerality of silence; polyartists and dilettantes; the opportunities and perils of the “culture of one”; visual music, choreography, mixed media, and intermedia; creative reinvention and the value of artistic crisis; the twin dangers of gravity and levity; and a “dry run for the cultural apocalypse” (e.g., strategies for musical autonomy in the age of institutional collapse). Other topics will respond to those obsessions, joys, fears, and fetishes of course participants.

 

°ULYSSES-Journey-Composer selected for this workshop : Kaj Duncan David (Denmark, 1989)
