"Evoking the Ineffable: Sound and Music in Experimental Ethnographic Writing"
Abstract: In this presentation, Mogollón Montagne traces some of the main issues conventional ethnographic writing presents and explores the more recent experimental writing approaches that have emerged from these academic debates and the influence of non-representational theories, affect studies, sound studies, and other writing styles. Some of these alternatives include ficto-criticism (Muecke 2008, Pattinson, Taussig 1992, 1997), approximations to poetry (Clough 2000, Kisliuk 1997, Rosaldo 2013), writing inspired by the concept of atmosphere (Peterson 2021), lists (Perec 1975), experiments with rhythm (Lefebvre 2004), refrains (Stewart 2015), and palimpsests (Moten 2021). Particular attention will be given to writing exercises that narrate musical experiences, modes of listening and sounding, and soundscapes. Lastly, this presentation contributes to this body of scholarship through ethnographic writing explorations derived from the practice and experience of music making and listening in Afro-Venezuelan tambor contexts.

Miller Puckette and Shiau-uen Ding computer/piano duo, presents Philippe Manoury’s Das Wohlpräparierte Klavier (... troisième sonate ...) in concert. This major work uses live electronics to transform the piano’s sound and makes references to styles and forms by Bach, Scarlatti, Beethoven, and John Cage. This piece was finished in 2020 and was written for and premiered by Daniel Barenboim. Puckette & Ding will invite faculty and students to join them for structured improvisation in the second part of the program.
