Curated by Chris Cutler <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag>*Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/ probes_tag PROBES <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag> takes Marshall McLuhan’s conceptual contrapositions as a starting point to analyse and expose the search for a new sonic language made urgent after the collapse of tonality in the twentieth century. The series looks at the many probes and experiments that were launched in the last century in search of new musical resources, and a new aesthetic; for ways to make music adequate to a world transformed by disorientating technologies. You can find the latest instalment of the series, exploring the impact of Indian instruments in Western Music here. <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/probes-20-1-chris-cutler/capsula> *3- **SON[I]A #248.

Music was passed on through sound, through generations, even for centuries after the invention of written music. Only in the 14th century did it become standard practice for a composer to sign his name to a piece of music and claim it entirely as his own, giving rise to the cult of the individual composer. But as recording supplanted sheet music in the 20th century, the presence of communal influence became unavoidably obvious once again as composers began to use recordings to make new recordings. We can now hear the presence of more than one voice. And there is a reason why people don't say they listen to a record – they say that they play a record. From the beginning, recordings have been instruments. Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/variations_tag/
