Abstract

This text contains the second part of a much longer article devoted to musical time published on the printed version of La Deleuziana n. 10/2019 Rhythm, Chaos and Nonpulsed Man. The first part of the printed version of the article provides a perspective for reflection about Time in music. It starts with a short introduction to Time and Sound, then it examines some common terms and current themes related to time in music on levels of increasing complexity. In this process, the text refers to the music of various provenance and traditions and also to the scientific and artistic thought. The second part of the article is devoted to my approach to Time, the ideas pushing me and the techniques I am developing in my music. More specifically, I introduce the idea of a curved time and make some examples of its realization. I show some synchronization techniques with varying degrees of flexibility and reactivity. Finally, I discuss the function of the musician in my music and give some cues to future developments. To fully understand the global perspective of this reflection and exploration of musical time from a contemporary perspective, we recommend reading the full printed version of the article.
