Abstract

Can a commitment to musical pluralism be embedded as a value in musical technologies? This question has come to structure part of our work during the early stages of a five-year project investigating techniques and tools for ‘Fluid Corpus Manipulation’ (FluCoMa). In this paper we frame our thinking about this by considering interdisciplinarity in Electroacoustic Music Studies, before proceeding to apply our thoughts on this to our specific project in terms of practice-led design. We end with questions as seeds for future discussion, rather than categorical findings.
