Persona 1: Jean Kim, eager and engaged student

After researching and interviewing college students, I developed this persona to determine product requirements:

• New York University, 20 yrs. old

• She says: “When I read for class, I want to understand the big picture, so I can determine which parts of the content are technical, so I can look them up later.”

• What this behavior means for mobile device use: “I don’t really read on my phone. I skim often and let visual cues lead me.”

• Other behaviors when using classroom material: content filtering; multi-tasking; copying and pasting

Introduction to Sylvano Bussotti: Five Pieces for David Tudor (1959)

About the Score

Italian composer Sylvano Bussotti’s score, Five Pieces for David Tudor: No. 4 (1959), may be best known not for the sound of its performance, but instead for its visual appearance in a printed publication. The central image of the score of No. 4 appears at the front of the introduction “Rhizome” to Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s encyclopedic book Milles Plateaux (1980) without explanation or commentary. Its visual appearance is wild, striking and highly memorable. It is a musical score of five staves whose usual rules and parameters have been turned into scrambled eggs. Ink pools inexplicably in various holes created by a tangle of curved staff lines. While some explanatory words appear on the far left in front of several bracketed staves (which can be read in English translation with commentary by clicking on each), a puzzling gap separates these indications from the central staff (bracketed with the number “6”). With so much called into question, by what rules and expectations might this composition be adequately performed?

Bussotti was a precocious young composer when he devised this score in 1959, and, like many European enthusiasts of contemporary music, was struck profoundly by the spectacle of John Cage and David Tudor at the Darmstadt Summer Courses in 1958. Eschewing the high modernist formalism then in vogue that tended to sideline intentionality and subjective expression (whether via twelve-tone composition, serial techniques, chance procedures, or other systematic methods), Bussotti instead allowed the inky density of the avant-garde score to explode in expressionistic directions in a way that upended the usual rules of interpreting a score. Among many of his eccentric uses of notation, Bussotti recast note heads, grace notes, accidentals, fermatas, and a handful of unconventional musical signs into freely designed assemblages. Some of his compositions even aggregated the musical symbols into faces, images, and letters of the alphabet. The resultant graphic scores rendered the conventional transparency of musical notation opaque, and spurred the performer to experiment on their own to find an acceptable method of execution.
