Description

Invited keynote presentation

Can the joy of playing an acoustic instrument carry over into electronic music and sound art? What is required of musical interactions to induce the sensation of being a "musikant", a musician who plays with his mind and body? What does it give to the listeners? Is such an embodied aesthetics a limiting factor in sound art? Or a path towards a stronger listening experience? From the perspective of my own artistic practice, I will try (but fail) to answer these questions.

The keynote will start with the performance of a new work, Libration Perturbed, composed for this occasion.
