Projects for factories

Andre: a factory for making collaborative songs (based on samples)

Questions

(think about you want to get across, the issues/questions you'd like to address)

Online collaborative sound/musical composition

  • what are the motivations to participate in collaborative sound works ?
  • what results might arise from such process?
  • how can such a system be devised?
  • what will bring users to participate?
  • what existing examples of collaborative music composition exist?
  • can it become something not serious?
  • copyright laws? - an advocation of plunderphonics?


A Sketch

  • could a song be created collectively, with unrestricted contributions?
  • could Distributed Control Version System be implemented in for music making?

A system that allows anyone to contribute, to submit his version, to resurrect previous version
To put a song in permanent construction.

  • wikipedia could be taken as model, in that moderation is the responsibility of the users

If a submission doesn't respect the rules, users can decide to go back 1 version

  • compositions could be devised as games

Each one starting from a given sound material, a given set of rules, and an aim
(bringing a bit of humor as in Oulipo creations)

Example of a game/piece:

  • Material: the week's/month's #1 hit song
  • Rules: users can only use material from that song; no effects should be used, only editing; After that week/month the song is finished; The last version will be distributed as widely as possible
  • Aim: render the song totally unrecognizable




References:

  • Sonic Outlaws - FILM
  • mix tape culture books - tape of favorite songs


Interfacing

how the projects could enter into a dialogue?

  • Dave - svn, git. What does he wants to head with it? What is his take
  • Eleanor - shared storage, maintenance

Each project has to think about 2 interfaces in other projects



---

Other's projects

Eleanor: facebook censored from facebook

if you establish a social protocol that circunvent the restriction that allow a social experiment

  • pirco wireless code of conduct - for Eleanor project

Graphic scores and Git

  • Dave
  • Cornelious Cardew - The Great Learning - negative feedback built into it
  • the reproducibility and
  • the social idea between open scores
  • if open composition were tools for allowing non-musicians and trained musician to compose-play together
  • graphic scores and open composition
  • Cobra by John Zorn
  • Notations by Christian Marcley


CONCLUSION OF PROJECT PRESENTATIONS

ideas are medium specific

  • applying the factory paradigm to the medium which we are familiar with
  • the next step is to abstract from the media; what are the common lines between project

when they similar in their structure and their approach
