The Sublime As Model: Formal Complexity in Joyce, Eisenstein The Sublime as Model: Formal Complexity in Joyce, Eisenstein and Stockhausen MARTIN S. WATSON A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACUTLY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO ©Martin S. Watson 2016 Abstract: “The Sublime as Model: Formal Complexity in Joyce, Eisenstein and Stockhausen,” undertakes an investigation of three paradigmatic late-modernist works in three mediums — James Joyce’s novel, Finnegans Wake, Sergei Eisenstein’s film, Ivan the Terrible I & II, and Karlheinz Stockhausen’s orchestral work, Gruppen for Three Orchestras — with an aim to demonstrating cross-media similarities, and establishing a model for examining their most salient trait: formal complexity. This model is based on a reading of the Kantian “mathematical sublime” as found in his Critique of the Power of Judgment, as well as borrowing vocabulary from phenomenology, particularly that of Edmund Husserl. After establishing a critical vocabulary based around an analysis of the mathematical sublime and a survey of the phenomenology of Husserl and Heidegger, the dissertation investigates each of the three works and many of their attendant critical works with an aim to illuminate the ways in which their formal complexity can be described, how this type of complexity is particular to late-modernism in general, and these works in particular, and what conclusions can be drawn about the structure and meaning of the works and the critical analyses they accrue. Much of this analysis fits into the rubric of the meta- critical, and there is a strong focus on critical surveys, as the dissertation attempts to provide cross-media models for critical vocabulary, and drawing many examples from extant criticism. The dissertation concludes with reflections on the concept of “models” for criticism, their construction and their value. ii Dedication: Thanks to my parents, to R. Bruce Elder and the rest of my committee, including those present for its early stages, to Amanda Lucier, and finally, this paper is dedicated to my friends from the program, Boris Pantev and Angela

(1951 © Ina/Maurice Lecardent, Ina GRM Archives) 42 EARLY HISTORY – PREDECESSORS AND PIONEERS A convergence of new technologies and a general cultural backlash against Old World arts and values made conditions favorable for the rise of electronic music in the years following World War II. Musical ideas that met with punishing repression and indiffer- ence prior to the war became less odious to a new generation of listeners who embraced futuristic advances of the atomic age. Prior to World War II, electronic music was anchored down by a reliance on live performance. Only a few composers—Varèse and Cage among them—anticipated the importance of the recording medium to the growth of electronic music. This chapter traces a technological transition from the turntable to the magnetic tape recorder as well as the transformation of electronic music from a medium of live performance to that of recorded media.

These concerts include no fewer than sixteen piano solos; I have chosen not to include a number of other works for indeterminate instrumentation which are well suited to the piano (the Tilbury pieces for example) as well as two recent anthologies of short pieces, A Keyboard Miscellany and Incidental Music , and also Long Piano (Peace March 11) of which I gave the European premiere in 2007.

[!] TIM SOUSTER 17 Intermodulation: A Short History ON THE EVENING of Saturday July 26, 1969, in a plastic geodesic dome on Tower Hill, a concert was given by four players who were subsequently to become the initial members of the live-electronics group Intermodulation: Andrew Powell (guitars, keyboards), Roger Smalley (keyboards, electronics), Tim Souster (viola, keyboards, electronics) and Robin Thompson (soprano sax, bassoon, keyboards and guitar). ( Andrew Powell was succeeded in 1970 by Peter Britton (percussion, electronics, key boards).) The concert was characterised by the rough and ready technology typical of electronic ventures at that time. Borrowed amplifiers failed to assert themselves. The dial of an ex-army sine-tone oscillator was nimbly controlled by Robin Thompson with his foot. A Hugh Davies-built ring-modulator nestled in its cardboard box on the floor. The 'visuals' (in the original version of my Triple Music I, written specially for this concert) consisted of coloured slides of food, footballers and political events, most of which failed to appear or did so upside-down. The whole occasion was dominated by a PA system lent and personally installed by Pete Townshend of The Who, who could be glimpsed lowering behind the loudspeaker columns throughout the show. Those lucky enough to be connected to this (for those days) mighty array of WEM equipment were able to play very loud indeed: I can remember little else. TECHNICAL PRE-CONDITIONS In 1968 Roger Smalley became composer-in-residence at King's College, Cambridge; I followed suit in 1969.

  • Christian Wolff in Interview Invited Paper Given for Christian Wolff at Orpheus, Orpheus Research Centre, Ghent, Belgium, 28 and 29 September 2015
    Christian Wolff in Interview Invited paper given for Christian Wolff at Orpheus, Orpheus Research Centre, Ghent, Belgium, 28 and 29 September 2015 Virginia Anderson, Experimental Music Catalogue Abstract For the conference: In 1972–3, the American composer Barney Childs began work on a book of interviews with modern composers. Unfortunately, Childs could not find a publisher for the book and abandoned the project. The interviews have remained, unpublished and almost unseen, for over forty years. This paper will introduce Childs’ interview with Wolff in June 1972. Here Wolff and Childs discuss their concerns, including composition (his recent composition Burdocks), performance, and education. As I have just received this interview, this paper will have no definitive conclusions. It will, rather, examine the interview as time capsule, as a kind of research expedition. Update, 6 March 2017: The present paper appears as it was given in 2015, as a spoken text. Since this conference paper, I have received all of Childs’ interviews, and have now almost finished editing the original interviews before writing contextual essays for the final publication of his book and the realisation of his dream. Thanks so much to Christian Wolff for his support of this early stage of this project and to William Brooks, convenor of the Christian Wolff Study Days, who always gives me the best advice regarding experimental music and its research. Paper: Well, as the abstract implies, this isn’t actually a formal research paper. It’s more like the beginning of research. For years I’ve known of this interview, and a number of others, but only two weeks ago I was able to get access to it.
