Proposal for CAGE101 conference (Malaysia)

unCage your mind

By Teresa Vila Verde

At CAGE101’s conference I want to get inside John Cage’s mind to uncage our minds about what art is. Indeed, the knowledge of Cage’s work and philosophy is crucial to understand of what art means today. And I am not just referring to music, but to a large arena of activities that are usually called by the umbrella name of performance. 

Cage’s interest in improvisation and free association challenged many art conventions in the fifties and paved the way for the happenings and other performance activities that happened during the sixties and seventies. But we can find echoes of his experiments in today’s art discourse and practice. Therefore, my presentation will be guided and fuelled by the questions: where can we find Cage today? How did Cage’s experiments contribute to a paradigm change in the art world? How can Cage uncage our mind about art? To answer these questions I will put my attention in some pivotal contemporary artists, like for example the body artist Marina Abramovic, whose work express, in my opinion, why John Cage’s mind is so important to us understand contemporary acts. 

This undertaking seems to me urgent to do because, even 101 years after his birth, his work is still controversial, especially among musicians and music students, which tend to ignore it or to ironize it. Acknowledging this I will endeavour to demonstrate why there is an art world before Cage and an art world after Cage. To do this I will make a lecture-performance that will interlink Cage’s work with silence, words, video, performance and, hopefully, spirituality.

Call for Papers

CAGE101 – PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE

Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris - Perak Malaysia 21 - 23 August 2013

Submissions are invited for paper and performance presentations at the International Conference, Cage101 - Past - Present - Future (21 - 23 August 2013) organized by Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI), Tanjong Malim, Perak, Malaysia.  

UPSI's international music lecturers, whose research interests include electro-accoustic composition and performance, are collaborating with local musicians and academics to organize this conference. The conference focuses on the diverse and extraordinary influences of Cage: historical, contemporary and philosophical.  We are seeking papers and performances that explore these strands.

This is a unique event in Malaysia and, at our university where ethnomusicology and music education are very strong, we are driving a forging of links between these strengths and new music and ideas. Keynote speakers and performers will include composers, artists, and academics, and new works will be commissioned specially for this event.

All submissions will be blind peer reviewed by an international panel.

You can see more detail regarding the conference, its strands and submission process through the website.  http://fmsp.upsi.edu.my/cage101/

We hope this conference will be of interest to you. If you are not able to present at the conference yourself, would you please encourage appropriate students in your faculty or under your supervision to submit a proposal? We hope to welcome many participants to this event!

The Sound of my Body

Proposal for the Two Thousand + TWELVE Symposium

Belfast, 22-27th March 2012

http://www.sonorities.org.uk/

The sound of my body 

The field of Performance gives close attention to aspects of performance that are usually neglected by musicians. When we think about music as performance, new relations between the body and music, body and mind, body and space, body and technologies, the performer’s body and the audience’s body, are brought out to light. Performance thus paves the way for exciting new insights about music-thinking and music-making.

As a music practitioner with keen interest in the Performance field, at the Two Thousand + TWELVE Symposium I will present my work exploring the new relations that arise from thinking of music and performance together. First I will contextualize the body, and the artist’s body in particular, through a varied range of studies taken from philosophy to musicology and performance, aiming to understand the paradigm shift that happened around the position of the artist’s body inside the Western culture. This will be followed by a video screening of my solo improvisation project, done during my Masters in Contemporary Music at Brunel University (West London/2008), which explores the connections between my body and the piano’s body. Inspired in Pina Bausch’s aesthetical universe, I created a kind of choreography of movements that generated sound on the piano – a sound that became the music of my body.
