Refleksjon over Masterprosjekt Sjel og landskap Formidling av nordisk romanselitteratur gjennom musikk og bevegelse
(2024)
author(s): Camilla Marie Bjørk Andreassen
published in: Research Catalogue
I mitt masterprosjekt har jeg ønsket å jobbe med formidling av det klassiske nordiske romanserepertoaret på en måte som bryter noe med den tradisjonelle konsertformen, og som kanskje kan bidra til å berøre et bredere publikum med den fantastiske skatten av tekst og musikk som ligger i denne litteraturen.
I denne refleksjonen vil jeg skrive litt om utgangspunktet for prosjektet, prosjektets og min egen prosess og utvikling, og hva jeg håper blir veien videre.
EXPLORING THE ARTISTIC LEGACY OF WILLIAM GILLOCK: JAZZ EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY PRACTICES IN THE MODERN ERA
(2024)
author(s): Angelina Tarlovskaia

This paper explores the artistic legacy of William Gillock through a practice-based lens, focusing on his influence on jazz education and contemporary musical practices. As a composer and educator, Gillock’s work has been instrumental in shaping modern jazz pedagogy.
The study reflects on my own pedagogical practice and its relationship to Gillock’s methods, examining how his compositional techniques and teaching strategies continue to inform my approach to jazz instruction. By engaging with Gillock’s work in practical contexts, I highlight how his contributions foster the development of technical proficiency and expressive artistry among students. This reflection underscores the enduring relevance of Gillock's innovations, as they continue to inspire and shape the growth of the jazz community today, ensuring that his legacy remains central to the evolution of jazz education and performance.
Two Bobs and a Steve
(2024)
author(s): Pavlos Kountouriotis
published in: Research Catalogue
Two men, one score, two saws, one falls. Propelled by their inability to let go, these two men dash to rush with all they have got to grab anything they find that can help them keep on going. This is just another example; an otherwise obsessive, geeky score with the most expected outcome. Immersed within the world of Steve Reich, their goal is to find the human within the mathematical function of the score and to discover the immanent dramaturgies emerging from within this inanimate system.
Noise Pollution and Sound Beyond “Sound”
(2024)
author(s): SHLUK
published in: Journal of Sonic Studies
The Artistic Research project SHLUK focuses on the topics of noise pollution and sound beyond sound. For this purpose, it questions the (mis)conceptions behind the ideas of audible spectrum and “unwanted sound”. The group aims to put forward a proposal for political involvement with the environment, namely through the practice of field recordings. In this case, the collection of sounds in a specific neighborhood in Prague (Barrandov) carries the bond to discuss these practices. Moreover, the group proposes the idea of “deep recording“ as a device for a necessary acoustic revolution towards a less anthropocentric understanding of ecology.

"(...) a cidade (...) consiste somente de um lado de fora e de um avesso, como uma folha de papel, com uma figura aqui e outra ali, que não podem se separar nem se encarar", um lugar onde as partes, os contrastes e o movimento participam numa dança infindável. E é a busca pela compreensão da linha ténue entre o sim e o não, o claro e o escuro, o tudo e o nada, que dá nome ao nosso trabalho, Oppositions.
“(…) the city (…) consists only of an outside and a reverse, like a sheet of paper, with a figure here and there, which cannot be separated nor face each other.”, a place where the parts, contrasts and movement participate in an endless dance. And it is the search for understanding the fine line between yes and no, light and dark, everything and nothing, that gives name to our work, Oppositions.
JSS26 Editorial
(2024)
author(s): Vincent Meelberg
published in: Journal of Sonic Studies
Every now and then JSS publishes a non-themed issue. What happens in general is that, over several months, people have submitted papers outside of a call for papers, or outside a thematic issue that is planned. After having collected enough of those papers, we start the usual (external) peer review and editing processes and publish an issue that has no focus on one theme which will be explored in depth, but one that presents the versatility and width of contemporary sound studies and/or sound art.
