Накратко на български

Архивирането на експерименталната музика след 60-те години изследва как да се съхраняват обекти, електронни инструменти и модификации, които не са записани в традиционни ноти. Това помага да се опази творчеството на маргинализирани композитори и да се разбере музика, която не е предназначена за повторение.

Archiving post-1960s experimental music: Exploring the ontology of music beyond the score-performance dichotomy

ARPOEXMUS aims at expanding contemporary ideas about musical archiving (storage and preservation) and conservation (management of heritage assets so as to enhance their significance) by contending with the heterogeneous musical materials and traces that derive from post-1960s experimental music — including instruments, scores, objects (e.g. preparations and instrument modifications), electronic instruments, custom-made devices. The work was divided into 5 Research Objectives (ROs) and 4 Work Packages (WPs). The questions that this project will address are: Q1: How do we archive musical works and performances that resist traditional archiving centred on written transmission? Q2: What role can musicologists play in the process of music conservation, and what can contemporary thinking in the ontology of music offer to archival and preservation work? Q3: How can musical archiving practices, together with musicology, preserve and illuminate the work of composers who have been marginalized due to gender, race, or disability, thereby counteracting biases in the processes of selective canon formation? ARPOEXMUS aims to break new ground by researching approaches for the archiving, conservation and study of musics that deliberately challenge the assumptions of permanence and repeatability that the concept of the archive is based on. Work packages (WP) 1–3 compare technologically, conceptually and socially different music- and sound-based art, all of which challenge the ontological primacy of the notated score.

Цел на проекта

ARPOEXMUS explores what role musicology can play in ensuring the storage, preservation, management and curation of post-1960s experimental music. For the first time, this project addresses the theoretical, ontological, methodological and ethical issues that arise from archiving the heterogenous instruments, objects, electronic devices, software, and custom-built materials that have been at the heart of sonic arts for the past 60 years. Drawing on a set of comparative case studies, ARPOEXMUS engages with three different paradigms: 1) objects as scores, instruments and sculptures and their preservation in musical archives; 2) custom-made electronic instruments and collaborations with science and technology museums; 3) obsolescence and digital heritage. These will be tackled using insights from contemporary musicology and archival studies that challenge the assumptions of permanence and stability upon which the ‘work concept’ is based. ARPOEXMUS uses qualitative data analysis, comparative analysis, media theory, and action-based research to explore in detail: 1) the ontologies set forth by each case study; 2) current conservation practices to archive and conserve these ontologies; 3) innovative conservation practices designed specifically for these new ontologies. Bringing together an ER whose expertise covers 1960s and ’70s experimental music and archiving, a Supervisor who is a leading voice in the process of decolonisation and diversity in music studies and a Co-Supervisor who is a leading scholar in contemporary digital musics and sound art, ARPOEXMUS will contribute new insights and initiatives for scholars, archivists, and practitioners.
