Performing Live Electronic Music

Since digital technologies made real time sound processing broadly accessible in the 1980s, significant shifts in creative music practices and aesthetics, and further technological developments have profoundly transformed the performance practice of live electronic music.
In this book philosophers, musicologists, composers and performers discuss the current state of that practice. Besides addressing creative processes, performance approaches, unsolved problems regarding obsolescence, and the growing aesthetic diversity the contributions outline new aspects that transcend the pure musical fact: live electronic music practice reveals the multiple entanglements between arts and sciences, and how technology redefines the relationships between artists, cultures and environments, significantly impacting the way in which composers, performers and audiences engage, experience, share and create meaning and knowledge. Live electronic music performance thus offers unique insight into the radical changes and potentials of the arts in times of multiple global challenges.
The present book marks the temporary conclusion of a research cycle dedicated to the performance practice of electroacoustic music realised at the Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology of the Zurich University of the Arts between 2012 and 2023. It complements a variety of other output formats including scholarly essays, practice-oriented work-specific articles, performances and recordings.
