Phaneron
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Included in this thesis are the score materials and documentation for Phaneron (2019), an intermedia piece for violin, electronics, projection, and lighting, created for and in collaboration with Marco Fusi and Michiko Theurer. This project was a means to explore the topic of Hyperrealism through musical composition, resulting in a deeper study of its surrounding theory, aesthetics, and philosophy. My understanding of this term, and also the impetus for this project, was informed by the writings of Jean Baudrillard in his 1981 treatise, "Simulacra and Simulation." This provided a structural basis for the piece while also prompting a philosophical-aesthetic question: how can the real and artificial become blurred, and, furthermore, what are the perceptual effects of these blurrings? In Phaneron, I endeavored to create a piece in which stagecraft, rhetorical techniques, and the incorporation of different media were employed to cause confusion between the real and fake, and to explore nuances within this space.
