Ok, so here we have some interesting points to make for our presentation. I have compiled this so that they hopefully read more efficiently, in 'presentation mode' Also, a visual example of how 'flow chart music', used as a methodology, can directly or indirectly as it may seem, influence ones work. To start with, some points included within the presentation:
¤ There are many ways one can construct a works
¤ Similar to I Ching by Cage, we can replace a flipping of a
coin with the roll of a dice
¤ Steve Reich’s ‘It’s Gonna Rain’ (process music)
¤ Two Wallensak tape machines..
¤ Through mechanical error, the two tape machines start in
unison, then drift apart.
¤ Through this mistake, the methodology for phase shifting
was invented through ‘happy accidents’
¤ Flow Chart Music continued…
¤ Can be utilised as a process tool
¤ Decision Making Removed
¤ Outcomes materialise from serendipity
¤ Success is questionable
¤ Subjective, results will vary
¤ Promotes free flowing work – BUT HOW?............
Brian Eno:
"Since I have always preferred making plans to executing them, I have gravitated
towards situations and systems that, once set into operation, could create music
with little or no intervention on my part. That is to say, I tend towards the roles of
planner and programmer, and then become an audience to the results."
¤ We could define that 1- 6 relates directly to a predefined
parameter that once applied, can change an audible outcome
¤ This can be articulated visually with the following flow
chart:
¤ Here is an example flow chart highlighting how ones results can be influenced from this methodology.
