  • Inventaris Immateriele Collectie
    versie maart 2021 • aanvullingen graag melden bij coördinator 1 immateriële collectie Archeon de immateriële collectie van Archeon Museumpark Archeon beheert niet alleen een collectie tastbare zaken, zoals gebouwen en de inventaris daarvan, maar ook een immateriële collectie. Deze laatste bestaat uit de vakkennis van archeotolken die een bepaald ambacht beheersen of zich een vaardigheid hebben eigen gemaakt op een wijze die past bij de historische periode waarin zij optreden. Feitelijk gaat het om een verzameling werkwoorden die in praktijk gebracht worden. Bijvoorbeeld ‘Gregoriaans zingen’ of ‘middeleeuws broodbakken’. Hier is de eerste inventarisatie van deze collectie in prehistorie, Romeinse tijd en middeleeuwen vastgelegd. Het is een momentopname. De immateriële collectie rust op de schouders van mensen die gaan en komen. Het streven is om deze collectie te bewaren en onderhouden. De inventarisatie ervan is daarbij een eerste stap. De immateriële collectie is niet altijd volledig zichtbaar. Sommige lemma’s in deze collectie zijn zelfs zeer zelden te zien, of slechts voor een enkeling. Toch zijn ook deze onderwerpen van belang. Voor onderzoekers, of voor speciale projecten kan er, op aanvraag, veel informatie uit te putten zijn. Ook zijn er onderwerpen die juist veel in ons park te zien zijn, omdat daar een educatieve publieksactiviteit op is gebaseerd. De verzameling is gelabeld in nummers die verwijzen naar de locatie waar de onderwerpen thuishoren, en in categorieën: ambacht, krijgskunst, kunstvak, textiele vaardigheid, agrarisch, en huishouden. In de toekomst kan deze immateriële collectie via een gedifferentieerde database ontsloten worden. Via de categorieën kan een bezoeker of onderzoeker dan eenvoudiger vinden wat hij zoekt. Uiteraard worden daarbij nooit zomaar persoonsgegevens openbaar gemaakt; het onderdeel ‘continuïteit’, waarin is vastgelegd welke specialisten beschikken over welke vaardigheid blijft afgeschermd.

LEVEN Yale University* Abstract: Scholarship on the late fifth-century BC New Music Revolution has mostly relied on the evidence provided by Athenaeus, the pseudo-Plutarch De musica and a few other late sources. To this date, however, very little has been done to understand Athenaeus’ own role in shaping our understanding of the musical culture of that period. This article argues that the historical context provided by Athenaeus in the section of the Deipnosophistae that cites passages of Melanippides, Telestes and Pratinas on the mythology of the aulos (14.616e−617f) is not a credible reflection of the contemporary aesthetics and strategies of the authors and their works.

  • Remembering Music in Early Greece
    REMEMBERING MUSIC IN EARLY GREECE JOHN C. FRANKLIN This paper contemplates various ways that the ancient Greeks preserved information about their musical past. Emphasis is given to the earlier periods and the transition from oral/aural tradition, when self-reflective professional poetry was the primary means of remembering music, to literacy, when festival inscriptions and written poetry could first capture information in at least roughly datable contexts. But the continuing interplay of the oral/aural and written modes during the Archaic and Classical periods also had an impact on the historical record, which from ca. 400 onwards is represented by historiographical fragments. The sources, methods, and motives of these early treatises are also examined, with special attention to Hellanicus of Lesbos and Glaucus of Rhegion. The essay concludes with a few brief comments on Peripatetic historiography and a selective catalogue of music-historiographical titles from the fifth and fourth centuries. INTRODUCTION Greek authors often refer to earlier music.1 Sometimes these details are of first importance for the modern historiography of ancient 1 Editions and translations of classical authors may be found by consulting the article for each in The Oxford Classical Dictionary3. Journal 1 2 JOHN C. FRANKLIN Greek music. Uniquely valuable, for instance, is Herodotus’ allusion to an Argive musical efflorescence in the late sixth century,2 nowhere else explicitly attested (3.131–2). In other cases we learn less about real musical history than an author’s own biases and predilections. Thus Plato describes Egypt as a never-never- land where no innovation was ever permitted in music; it is hard to know whether Plato fabricated this statement out of nothing to support his conservative and ideal society, or is drawing, towards the same end, upon a more widely held impression—obviously superficial—of a foreign, distant culture (Laws 656e–657f).

  • Consumer Reports: Seth Price
    ARTISTS CONSUMER REPORTS ​ ​ Consumer Reports: Seth Price BY The Editors of ARTnews POSTED 11/16/18 11:58 AM ​ ​ ​ Seth Price is a New York-based multi-disciplinary artist whose work was included in the 2002 and 2008 editions of the Whitney Biennial, the 2011 Venice Biennale, and dOCUMENTA (13) in 2012. He has been the subject of survey exhibitions at Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, and the Museum Brandhorst in Munich. In 2015, the artist published the novel, Fuck ​ Seth Price; the same year, he created Organic Software, a website that uses ​ data-mining techniques to present information on notable art collectors and their political donation history. Price’s first show in six years at Petzel Gallery’s Chelsea space, “Hell Has Everything,” is on view until January 5. For Price’s comprehensive Report, we follow the artist as he prepares for the opening of Hell Has Everything. A bit of a “Consumer Reports” traditionalist, Price ​ ​ attempts to keep things focused on the reason that we all came here in the first place: straight up, hardcore media consumption. That means Power 105 (bucking a long trend of Hot 97 shoutouts), the French animated children’s series LoliRock ​ (care of his daughter), plenty of books (Knausgaard,Xenofeminism) and a few ​ ​ podcasts. Plus some creative eBaying, The Great British Bake Off, and a bunch ​ ​ more–even stuff that doesn’t have to do with media at all. —John Chiaverina Tuesday, October 30 6:50 a.m. Buried somewhere deep inside the domicile, awaken to the new age “chimes” ringtone.

History, Music and Lesson Three: Musical English. Instruments. Lesson Four: How to Make Sound. Lesson Five: Musical Archaeology. Lesson Six: Musical Performance. Overview This lesson was designed as a continuation of the lesson entitled Continuity of Culture: Romans in Pompeii. http://layersofrome.utep.edu/lesson-plans/20-romans-pompeii In this lesson students will act as musical archaeologists. They will study and analyze remnants of ancient Roman civilization and its music, the instruments used to perform it, the structures such as the Odeon and the music theaters where it was produced, and the mosaics, frescos and sculptures which depict how it was played. In this lesson, by taking a closer look at surviving musical artifacts and art works such as those from Pompeii, students will gain a broad appreciation of music as performed in the past. They will study how the ancient Romans in Pompeii in their production and appreciation of music are similar to people today. By comparing reconstructions of ancient Roman music with their own, students will be able to draw parallels between the two. Ultimately, they will use the remnants and the comparisons to attempt to reconstruct the musical environment of ancient Rome. Introduction The absence of recording technology in the Roman period has left us with a great deal of uncertainty about the sound of Roman music.

Gli antichi erano coscienti dei diversi poteri dei suoni, capaci di influenzare le emozioni, incitare o addolcire, addirittura “incantare” e la musica poteva educare il comportamento umano ed essere quindi usata come una terapia, come certi suoni degli strumenti musicali impiegati nei culti misterici per favorire il risve- glio e l’elevazione spirituale.
