FITZGERALD BMus(Hons), MMus(Melb) FACULTY of CREATIVE ARTS 2004 Thesis Certification CERTIFICATION I, Thomas A. Fitzgerald, declare that this thesis, submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Creative Arts, in the Faculty of Creative Arts, University of Wollongong, is wholly my own work unless otherwise referenced or acknowledged. The document has not been submitted for qualifications at any other academic institution. Thomas A. Fitzgerald 23rd October 2004 Acknowledgements I wish to acknowledge the invaluable support of my Supervisors, Professor Stephen Ingham and Dr. Houston Dunleavy, whose insight and wisdom illuminated my journey in this creative research project. In addition, their patience and resourcefulness remained constant throughout these demanding four years. I also received considerable technical and administrative assistance from the staff at the Creative Arts Department, especially Des Fitzsimons, Alaister Davies, and Olena Cullen. The U.O.W. Library and Research Student Centre staff at U.O.W., led by Julie King, were consistently resourceful. This research was made possible through a University of Wollongong Post Graduate Award, and I remain deeply appreciative of this financial assistance. My associate research collaborative artists, especially Lycia Danielle Trouton, and as well, Elizabeth Cameron-Dalman, Hilary Rhodes, and John Bennett, provided invaluable insight and creative inspiration. Finally, I am appreciative of the emotional and personal support of my own family-Lindy, Jessica, Alice, as well as my parents and siblings.

  • The Musical Worlds of Julius Eastman Ellie M
    9 “Diving into the earth”: the musical worlds of Julius Eastman ellie m. hisama In her book The Infinite Line: Re-making Art after Modernism, Briony Fer considers the dramatic changes to “the map of art” in the 1950s and characterizes the transition away from modernism not as a negation, but as a positive reconfiguration.1 In examining works from the 1950s and 1960s by visual artists including Piero Manzoni, Eva Hesse, Dan Flavin, Mark Rothko, Agnes Martin, and Louise Bourgeois, Fer suggests that after a modernist aesthetic was exhausted by mid-century, there emerged “strategies of remaking art through repetition,” with a shift from a collage aesthetic to a serial one; by “serial,” she means “a number of connected elements with a common strand linking them together, often repetitively, often in succession.”2 Although Fer’s use of the term “serial” in visual art differs from that typically employed in discussions about music, her fundamental claim I would like to thank Nancy Nuzzo, former Director of the Music Library and Special Collections at the University at Buffalo, and John Bewley, Archivist at the Music Library, University at Buffalo, for their kind research assistance; and Mary Jane Leach and Renée Levine Packer for sharing their work on Julius Eastman. Portions of this essay were presented as invited colloquia at Cornell University, the University of Washington, the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, Peabody Conservatory of Music, the Eastman School of Music, Stanford University, and the University of California, Berkeley; as a conference paper at the annual meeting of the Society for American Music, Denver (2009), and the Second International Conference on Minimalist Music, Kansas City (2009); and as a keynote address at the Michigan Interdisciplinary Music Society, Ann Arbor (2011).
