Revisiting Kontakte: Issues of history, performance and intuition

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

An experiment in using digital technology to recreate some of the analogue techniques used by Karlheinz Stockhausen in Kontakte has been undertaken. Recently it has become possible to perform these techniques in real-time. These experiments lead to a consideration of computer music's relationship with its history, the significance of interaction and intuition in the studio, and the role of performance of electroacoustic music.
