Performing Live Electronic Music | Germán Toro Perez, Lucas Bennett, Jörn Peter Hiekel (Hg.) [E-Book PDF]
Since digital technologies made real time sound processing broadly accessible in the 1980s, significant shifts in creative music practices and aesthetics, and further technological developments have profoundly transformed the performance practice of live electronic music. In this book philosophers, musicologists, composers and performers discuss the current state of that practice.
Besides addressing creative processes, performance approaches, unsolved problems regarding obsolescence, and the growing aesthetic diversity the contributions outline new aspects that transcend the pure musical fact: live electronic music practice reveals the multiple entanglements between arts and sciences, and how technology redefines the relationships between artists, cultures and environments, significantly impacting the way in which composers, performers and audiences engage, experience, share and create meaning and knowledge. Live electronic music performance thus offers unique insight into the radical changes and potentials of the arts in times of multiple global challenges.

Signals, Systems and Sound Synthesis | Martin Neukom
The subject of this book is the synthesis and treatment of sound by computer. Using illustrations, animations, sound examples and sample programs, it introduces the most important techniques of sound and score synthesis and explains the technical and mathematical principles necessary for understanding them. After reviewing fundamentals of acoustics, the author describes system and signal theory and introduces the programs and programming languages used in the book. The traditionally important synthesis techniques are described in detail, as are various nonlinear synthesis techniques and synthesis by physical modeling. The concluding chapters of the book deal with the projection of sound in space and with the use of algorithmic and stochastic procedures in computer music. The appendix contains a survey of basic mathematical principles, various tables for reference and a detailed index. The included CD contains the entire text of the book, as well as additional chapters and explanations, sound examples, animations illustrating dynamic processes and many sample computer programs.

Milieux Sonores – Klangliche Milieus | Marcus Maeder
Klang, Raum und Virtualität
Ob im Computerspiel, im Architekturentwurf oder auf dem GPS-Display im Auto: Unsere Lebenswelt wird vermehrt durch den virtuellen Raum ergänzt, erschlossen und entworfen. Medientechnologien haben die räumliche Gestaltung des Klangs und darüber hinaus die mediale Definition des Raums vorangetrieben. Dass damit auch die Gestaltung klanglicher Milieus – unserer Umgebung – durch Sound-Designer, Akustiker, Künstler und Musiker Einfluss auf unsere Wahrnehmung und unser Verständnis von Wirklichkeit hat, liegt auf der Hand. Perspektivenreich und informativ untersucht dieses Buch die perzeptiven, kulturellen, technischen und künstlerischen Bedingungen der akustischen Virtualität.

Untersuchungen zum Theater mit nicht professionellen Darstellenden der deutschsprachigen Schweiz
Forschungsbericht zum SNF/DORE-Forschungsprojekt
Die Studie untersucht das aktuelle Freilichttheaterschaffen im Hinblick auf künstlerische Entwicklungen bezüglich Spiel, Regie und Autorschaft, regionalwirtschaftliche Effekte sowie kulturpolitische Aspekte. Sie zeigt auf, dass Freilichttheater eine höchst leistungsfähige und flexible Form des Theaters ist, wenn der Autorschaft der nicht professionellen Darstellenden und jener des Spielorts gebührend Rechnung getragen werden.
