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. 5- *COMPOSING WITH PROCESS <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/composingwithprocess_tag> series.

Playing phenomena as a compositional material.*Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/silvia_federici/capsula This mix explores how the use of aural phenomena can manifest in its many forms to become the key element in a compositional practice. By engaging in the use of such expanded sonic techniques the composer can act to create a recalibration of the listeners sense of hearing and by so doing, allow for a reconsideration of what constitutes sonic composition. *Enjoy!*
