Advances in high-speed networks, digital sound production, and computer-mediated communication systems are transforming the basic practices of music production and performance. Emerging technological practices range from asynchronous remixing of online music content to synchronous performances among geographically dislocated musicians. Musicians creating and playing music together over networks affords opportunities for mixing musical cultures, acoustic environments and performance practices. These "network performances" provide a way to evaluate some of the most salient features of a network society wherein individuals use communication technologies to enact and transform social practices across space and time. In this paper, we present a limited exploratory investigation into the social, cultural, and technological factors involved in the performance of music over networks. Temporal and spatial concerns are central to understanding the various technical challenges and opportunities that performers face while performing with other peers over the internet. Based on an initial case study and qualitative interviews of network performers we both describe and critique the global, collaborative, and participatory dimensions of network performance. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
