I demonstrate how my compositions highlight an interplay between the poles of subjectivity vs objectivity, human vs nonhuman and nature vs culture. Various musical precedents rooted in objectivity form the basis of this endeavour, such as the inaudible cosmic vibrations proposed by the Pythagoreans' Musica universalis, the chance procedures of mid twentieth-century experimental music, and the Platonic forms of Tom Johnson. However, although these standpoints do attempt to broaden the scope of music beyond the human sphere, they remain most often framed by transcendent discourse without explicitly addressing the subjective implications of such work. I propose an approach to composition that distances itself from a transcendental perspective, instead choosing to highlight the effects that objectivity elicits in human beings, while maintain- ing the presence of an external reality that remains inscrutable. Thus, my portfolio addresses the precise ways in which subjectivity remains present even within an objective musical dis- course, whether through exploring psychological responses to chance, the existential boredom brought on by unchanging forms, subjective reactions to the objectification of the human body, and the input of the imagination in the face of withdrawn or speculative musical objects. 3 Acknowledgements I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to: • My supervisor, Professor Aaron Cassidy, who always knew which questions to ask at precisely the right times; • My friends and colleagues at the University of Huddersfield, for three years of inspiring, odd, enlightening and hilarious conversations: Michael Baldwin, Daniel Portelli, Eleanor Cully, Stephen Harvey, Cassandra Miller, Solomiya Moroz, Lawrence Dunn, David Pock- nee, Alex Grimes, Daniela Amortegui (an honorary colleague), the list could go on...I sincerely hope that our conversations will continue for years to come; • John Lely, for the excellent editorial advice and also for the many stimulating discussions during my visits to London; • Mira Benjamin, not only for being an exemplary musician and role model but also for providing much needed decompression time and personal support; • My parents, for sharing with me their love of music and for being nothing but supportive even of my most obscure life decisions; • Steven Darbyshire, who probably doesn't know how much he has helped me during this process. 4 Contents Abstract 3 Acknowledgements 4 List of Portfolio Works 9 Prologue 11 1 Contextual Matters 16 1.1 Precedents . 17 1.1.1 Object . 18 1.1.2 Subject . 19 1.1.3 Musical Subjects and Objects . 28 1.2 Point of Departure .................................. 48 1.3 Related Artistic Investigations . 49 2 Autonomy 54 2.1 Autonomous Musical Instruments in What is this Thing Called...? ........ 55 5 2.2 Technological Autonomy in Two-Part Inventions ................. 58 2.3 Autonomous Objects in Metamorphosen ...................... 62 3 Contingency 66 3.1 No Chance Music ................................... 68 3.2 Sometimes Patterns ................................. 72 4 Speculation 78 4.1 Mixtapes for... ..................................... 83 4.2 Sonification of... .................................... 84 5 Embodiment 88 6 Flatness, Boredom 96 6.1 Sonification of... .................................... 98 6.2 Fields ......................................... 100 6.3 Hypersolid ....................................... 104 7 Conclusion 108 7.1 Future Work . 111 7.1.1 Geiger-Curated Playlist ............................ 112 7.1.2 Cassette Underground ............................ 114 Bibliography 116 6 List of Figures 1.1 Map of subjects and objects in musics discussed.

  • Authenticity and X Factor: Narratives of Stardom, Background/Aspiration and Performance
    Authenticity and X Factor: Narratives of Stardom, Background/Aspiration and Performance If success is to be measured numerically the UK X Factor is a triumph of superlatives. An average of 16.55 million viewers tuned in during the two-hour final episode on 11th December 20101, making it the most watched programme of the year on British television2. The winner, Matt Cardle, sold 439,000 copies of his single in the week following his victory3 and, according to The Guardian, the final weekend of the 2010 series raised £25 million in advertising revenue for its host channel ITV4. X Factor is a television format that grew out of ‘pop reality’ shows Popstars (UK, 2001-2) and Pop Idol (UK, 2002-3) and was established in 2004. The basic premise of the programme is to ‘discover’ a new popstar from an ever-dwindling pool of contestants. It begins with the ‘auditions’ section where the judges (Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole) whittle thousands of auditionees down to a ‘top 12’. These twelve acts are divided into four groups with each group assigned to a particular judge as their ‘mentor’. The so-called ‘live shows’ now begins in which each act must sing live every week5. Through a mixture of audience voting and judges decisions, one act is sent home every week, eventually leaving one to be crowned X Factor champion. Alongside this phenomenal commercial success, X Factor continues to be criticised in much of the UK media. Criticism tends to evoke an Adornian notion of the culture 1 http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/table/2010/dec/21/top-tv-shows-2010 2 http://www.barb.co.uk/report/weeklyTopProgrammesOverview? 3 http://www.nme.com/news/nme/54322 4 http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/dec/08/x-factor-ad-revenues industry, condemning the show as a commercialised enterprise intent on churning out banal and commoditised art (Adorno & Horkheimer, 1944: 121).
