Page 2/212 Les interviews Page 3/212 SCARVE - (interview réalisée par Nicko) 1/ Pourriez-vous rappeler brièvement le parcours du groupe depuis sa création ? Le groupe : La formation s'est formée fin 93 - début 94. On a rapidement enregistré une première démo, puis a suivi un premier album autoproduit 6 titres en 96. On a eu pas mal de changements de line-up, encore ces derniers temps. On a fait 2 albums depuis, produits et distribués, le premier chez Furtive Records en 2000, "Translucence", et puis il y a un mois, "Luminiferous", le nouvel album, est sorti chez Listenable Records. 2/ Ce soir, il s'agit du dernier concert de la tournée, comment s'est-elle justement passée ? Le groupe : Super cool, supers rencontres, que ce soit au niveau du public ou au niveau des groupes. On a pu aussi constater que pas mal de personnes qui étaient venues nous voir connaissaient déjà le dernier album, c'était assez sympa. On est content ! Sinon on a bien picolé, on a bien fait la fête ! Et on est complètement mort ! Mais on en redemande, on est prêt à repartir le plus tôt possible. On s'est trop éclaté. 3/ Vous sortez votre deuxième "vrai" album, "Luminiferous", est-ce que vous pouvez nous en parler, et nous énoncer les différences que l'on peut rencontrer par rapport au précédent album ? Le groupe : "Translucence" avait été composé sur une période beaucoup plus longue, donc il y avait plus de différences entre les morceaux, alors que là, "Luminiferous" est plus compact.

The Look of the Book: Visual Elements in the Experience of Reading from "Tristram Shandy" to Contemporary Artists' Books Abstract In the age of the novel, we read fiction sequentially and unselfconsciously. This practice requires us to ignore the materiality and appearance of books, for these factors disrupt narrative absorption. "The Look of the Book" explores specific books from England and America whose visual and material characteristics resist and redefine ah bitual experiences of reading prose. These specimens connect word and image in the book format, and they therefore resist the theories of critics since Gotthold Lessing that have separated visual and verbal modes. Lessing's contemporary, Laurence Sterne, uses visual elements in Tristram Shandy (1760–67) to digress from the reading sequence while furthering the overall narrative. Sterne's techniques also establish a taxonomy of the book's constituent variables. In the twentieth century, as bookmaking technologies became more widely accessible, a printing renaissance brought artists into book design.

  • The Music of Marc Battier, Kee Yong Chong and Gene Coleman: Compositions for Traditional Asian Instruments and Electronics in the Twenty-First Century
    THE MUSIC OF MARC BATTIER, KEE YONG CHONG AND GENE COLEMAN: COMPOSITIONS FOR TRADITIONAL ASIAN INSTRUMENTS AND ELECTRONICS IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY Hong-Da Chin A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS December 2017 Committee: Marilyn Shrude, Advisor Adam Fullenkamp Graduate Faculty Representative Nora Engebretsen Mikel Kuehn © 2017 Hong-Da Chin All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Marilyn Shrude, Advisor Well-known repertoires exist of instrumental works synthesizing Eastern and Western elements and also of works that combine acoustic instruments with electronics. In this document, I study the integration of Eastern and Western elements in a subset of works for electronics with Traditional Asian Instruments (TAI) and, in some cases, also traditional Western instruments. The goals are to draw attention to this repertoire and its inherent challenges, and specifically to demonstrate strategies used to integrate the TAI and electronics—with the hope that the analytical tools provided in the document will help others approach works involving cultural syntheses and, in particular, that this will offer guidance to composers interested in writing for TAI and electronics. This document examines three music compositions chosen because of the composers’ different cultural backgrounds and relationships to TAIs: Mist on a Hill by Marc Battier (France), Endless Whispering by Kee Yong Chong (Malaysia) and Spiral Network by Gene Coleman (United States). Their individualistic orientations toward materials offer three solutions to the three problems in composing for TAI and electronics: how the three chosen composers with different cultural backgrounds, write for TAI and electronics and their perspectives on traditional instruments; the difficulty in dealing with the nuances in timbre and different notational systems; and how they define the role of electronics in the chosen works for this document.
