Women, Trans and Non-Binary in Experimental Music
Fanny Chiarello

From the chapter 3. Rec

    A list of names mentioned:
    Beatriz Ferreyra
    Kate Carr
    Hybrid Soundscapes: Recording Ecotones + Edge Effects
    disrupt notion of authenticity (fictions of sound effects)
    "A soundscape reveals a lot about a place ... its openness and fragility the soundscape can reveal something about the process of community making ... its sensitivity to change offers both, opportunities and risks"
    Field Guide to Phantasmic Birds
    Vanessa Rosetto
    "she strives to reveal the network of narrative threads that underlie everyday life"
    "sourced by existing in the world"
    Dogs in English Porcelain
    Jana Winderen
    Hildegard Westerkamp
    Helena Gough
    Felicia Atkinson
    "My studio is Nomadic and swallows the landscape it crosses."
    "I use machines in an empirical way."
    Space as an Instrument
    Berangere Maximin
    Interest in Space in composition
    "I create an environment for it to grow up, to develop"
    Izabela Dłużyk
    Soundscapes of Summer
    Ecka Mordecai
    Karen Vogt
    Karen Gwyer
    Martyna Basta
    Ellen Band
    "We are suddenly reminded of the physical and vibratory reality of objects, so well known that we never take their pulse."
    Gaël Segalen
    SoS Gunver Ryberg
    Andy Guthrie
    Dali de Saint Paul
    Nour Mobarak
    Nyokabi Kariuki

(Why) Labels:

Can adopting label mean a guarantee within elitist music landscape?
does label allow women composers to escape suspicion for amateurism and illegitimacy?
diversity of forms invented by these women composers is measured in dogma ("as if creation had something to do with a nomenclature decided by a handful of white men in suits")


7 Types of Field Recording (fr):

  1. Additive Free fr
  2. Instrument fr (recorded fragment of reality becomes layer among others)
  3. Material fr (sound is modified, music arises from layering with others)
  4. Trigger fr (recording does not only precede but direct work)
  5. Undetectable fr
  6. All-fr pieces
  7. fr as Innermost Archive


What is a field recording?

"recording in live conditions" opposed to editing?
studio vs real world - impossible to identify
maybe the intention of recording sth is defining whether it is a field recording too
