John Adams | Shaker Loops for string septet (1978) Shaker Loops was composed in the fall of 1978 using fragments from a string quartet, Wavemaker, written earlier in that year. First performance: December, 1978 in Hellman Hall, San Francisco by the New Music Ensemble of the San Francisco Conservatory, conducted by the composer. The version for string orchestra was made in 1983 and first performed in April of that year at Tully Hall, New York, by the American Composers Orchestra conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas. The original "modular" score, published by Associated Music Publisher, has since been withdrawn and replaced by the 1983 "string orchestra" version. The "string orchestra" version can be played either by a septet of soloists or by a string orchestra of any size. 3 violins, 1 viola, 2 celli, 1 contrabass I. Duration: 24 minutes John Adams on Shaker Loops: Shaker Loops began as a string quartet with the title Wavemaker. Shaker Loops continues to be one of my most performed pieces. ↑ Return to top of page

The 10 inventions of Nikola Tesla that changed the world Nikola Tesla is finally beginning to attract real attention and encourage serious debate nearly 70 years after his death. Was he for real? A crackpot? Part of an early experiment in corporate-government control? We know that he was undoubtedly persecuted by the energy power brokers of his day — namely Thomas Edison, whom we are taught in school to revere as a genius. He was also attacked by J.P. Besides his persecution by corporate-government interests (which is practically a certification of authenticity), there is at least one solid indication of Nikola Tesla’s integrity — he tore up a contract with Westinghouse that was worth billions in order to save the company from paying him his huge royalty payments. But, let’s take a look at what Nikola Tesla — a man who died broke and alone — has actually given to the world. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9 and 10. Tesla had perhaps thousands of other ideas and inventions that remain unreleased. Sources :

The aforementioned American composer, John Cage, employed a variety of methods, including using characters of the I Ching (an ancient text featuring a series of symbols that relate to Chinese cosmology and philosophy), while the Greek composer Iannis Xenakis (1922-2001) used scientific data compiled by a computer in some of his earlier compositions to provide him with a body of source material (pitches, rhythms, and other parameters) from which he made conscious decisions as to what would go into the final score. One composer/artist, Dick Higgins (1938-1998), even used a machine gun to puncture holes into score paper that he then distributed for performance. 3. Final Score. 1. 4.
Déroulé du cours Documentaries: What are the best documentaries about economics Justin Rubin Aleatoric Music The central question that the composer must ask in terms of live aleatoric music is what parameters of the music need to be defined and to what degree are the materials to be controlled. We will create two original chamber works to explore some ways that this can be answered. 1. Defining Structure Without Specific Materials. One method developed by the American composer Morton Feldman (1926-1987) is to define only the number of notes to be played in a specified duration. The score is presented as a grid that reads in units of time from left to right, similarly to a standard score, with a numerical value placed within the grid squares to provide the performer the specified number of pitches. In this mode of thought, we will create a quasi-Feldman piece. 2. 1. Based on these instructions, the performers can choose to interact with one another - echoing each other's chosen fragments - or choose to go one's own way. 3.
"El violador eres tú" | Sciences Po Programme PRESAGE Delphine Grouès décrypte la performance du collectif Las Tesis El violador eres tú : le violeur c'est toi. Depuis novembre 2019, la performance d’un collectif féministe chilien, Las Tesis, est reprise dans le monde entier. Ce poème chanté et dansé, intitulé “Un violador en tu camino” [Un violeur sur ton chemin] dénonce les violences faites aux femmes en retranscrivant des travaux de recherche, notamment ceux de l’anthropologue argentino-brésilienne Rita Laura Segato. Dans quel contexte cette performance a-t-elle vu le jour ? Cette performance a vu le jour au Chili, en plein cœur d’une révolte sociale ; par les réseaux sociaux, elle s’est ensuite diffusée de manière massive à l’international. Ce collectif de jeunes femmes, Las Tesis, a été créé avant ces événements. Ce collectif s’appelle Las Tesis pour sa volonté de simplifier les thèses féministes. Plus que de simplifier les thèses féministes, je pense que leur volonté est de les retranscrire sous une autre forme. En savoir plus

Our charge was to identify and define key concepts in 20th-century music and to compile a list of terms derived from these concepts. We would then decide which of these terms sho uld be sent to the Library of Congress as proposals for new subject headings.
Lygia Clark - Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions Brazilian painter, sculptor and psychotherapist. Married at the age of eighteen, Lygia Clark led a normal middle-class life until her divorce in 1947, then moved to Rio de Janeiro to take up art. Her training in painting began under Roberto Burle Marx (1909–1994), a famous landscape architect, and continued in Paris between 1950 and 1952 alongside Fernand Léger (1881–1955) and Árpád Szenes (1897–1985). When concrete art – an abstractionist movement strongly derived from Russian constructivism – dominated the visual arts in South America, her painting concerned itself with the concretist exploration of the elements in the pictorial space, paying particular attention to the interstices between planes, especially the interphase between the canvas and the frame, which Clark would treat as a plastic element in its own right. In 1959 a group of artists based in Rio de Janeiro signed the Neo-Concrete Manifesto in response to the formalist and rationalist intransigence of concretism.
3 Censored TED Talks They Do Not Want You To See The current world order establishment has plenty to gain by keeping the people of the planet in the dark about ideas that can lead to a revolution in human consciousness. 1. Graham Hancock – The War on Consciousness Hancock's TED Talk, “The War on Consciousness”, was deliberately removed from YouTube: “Graham Hancock’s talk, again, shares a compelling and unorthodox worldview, but one that strays well beyond the realm of reasonable science. While attempting to critique the scientific worldview, he misrepresents what scientists actually think…” Chris Anderson, [TED]. After some debate, this presentation was not fully re-posted to TED’s site, but rather subjugated to a new, unseen basement corner on TED’s site, limiting its future visibility. Graham Hancock is the author of major international bestsellers, his books have sold more than five million copies worldwide and have been translated into 27 languages. 2. TED also removed the recent talk by author and bio-chemist Rupert Sheldrake. 3.
HISTORY 204 - THE REACTION AGAINST SERIALISM 1. Ascendancy of serialism in 1950's -- It was the only show in town - i.e. it was the dominant form of "new music" (except for Cage and a few American crazies) - everything else was "old hat" - Even successful composers like Copland, Britten and Stravinsky gave it a try Reaction against serialism took at least 4 forms: 1. Texture music - Ligeti, Penderecki 2. 3. 4. These styles have other motivations besides reaction to serialism, and serialism persists vigorously today, especially in the USA -- However, the issue was perceived at time (c.1960) as serialism vs. all comers, and several well-known (or later well-known) composers abandoned serialism during 1970s – e.g. 2. NB - This is not an official definition - It's based on the work of my student Randy Foy -- No one else uses the term, and many would probably reject it WHY would "texture music" be perceived as alternative to serialism? Examples of composers in this style: Ligeti, Penderecki, Xenakis 3. PLAY beginning as example of notation
