| Traditional western music includes co-located performers in antiphonal compositions from very early on to the present day. The opposing choir lofts of the Church of San Marco inspired Renaissance musicians Gabrieli and Monteverdi to compose pieces exploring the spatial effects of performers at a distance from one another. Using spatiality as a parameter of music, composers such as Stockhausen, Xenakis and Brant have separated orchestras into smaller groups placed at a distance from one another to create effects. Many composers use electronic means to establish a sense of unusual space and distance. The internet as a new venue is inspiring composers and presents many opportunities for engaging in co-located performances and new educational situations. Oliveros discusses ways of broadening educational opportunities for students and faculties by collaborating with peers and colleagues in distant institutions. She will also explore low and high tech telematic systems and their challenges for distributed performances, virtual residencies and education.
Telematics generally refers to the interface of computers, communication and performance. Mark Dresser (All About Jazz - New York News, 2009) |
