Lodewijk Muns deposited Who’s ‘I’ in Music?: Unmasking the Musical Persona in the group
Society for Music Theory (SMT) on Humanities Commons 4 years agoAccording to conventional literary theory, when we interpret the text of a poem or work of fiction as a condensed or represented speech act, this implies a hypothetical speaker.

Jon Silpayamanant replied to the topic Rights in the discussion
Julia Perry Working Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 1 month agoI’ve come across one reference to an alternate spelling that gets a few web hits: “Lucie Perry Bigby” is in the collected papers of Helen Walker Hill (pg. 112), an entry in the Copyright Encyclopedia, and an OCR text from a 1954 newspaper. I’ve been trying other spelling combinations (e.g. “Lucy,” “Bigbee,” etc.) but not having much luck.

Mariusz Kozak deposited Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s Violin Phase and the Experience of Time, or Why Does Process Music Work? in the group
Society for Music Theory (SMT) on Humanities Commons 4 years, 7 months agoReich’s Violin Phase has been mired in questions of time since its inception. In this article I present a theory of time in process music based on the notion of kinesthetic knowledge, and the synthesis of musical temporality through the generative (chronopoietic) and transformational (chronopraxial) acts of the body. I illustrate this theory w…[Read more]
