Sparky Conversations #12 - The Body Making Music: body-led explorations in composition and performance with Jenn Kirby
Bodies are connected and shaped by the objects and instruments with which we interact. Acoustic instruments have traditionally led this shaping, with bodies adapting to instrument properties. Electronic instruments do not have the same physical restrictions and can offer different possibilities for physical engagement and body-led approaches to composition and performance. In this talk, Jenn will discuss her approaches to body-led composition and performance and how working with movement sensors and controllers in electronic music also informs her instrumental composition work.
