Fullständig titel: The Media-Critical Conditions in Music Composition: Indexical Notations and Epistemic Demands

In order to create a practice-research environment, this project seeks to reframe the concept of sonic materiality in relation to the acoustic assumptions central to normative understandings of musical literacy. The urge of the New and Post- Media to go beyond the New Music, a preposition that may be debatable in today’s music culture, connects generic sound realities with the concept of the medium functioning as a new heritage site and its episteme. In this sense, the composer's role in this context is one of morphing rather than disintegrating, as formalized listening still seems relevant to modelling perceptual approaches.
