So, I submitted this this week. #PhD #PracticeAsResearch
Volumes 22 & 23 of my #composition #notebooks are online now: https://notebook.caitlinrowley.com/ . Now entering The Thesis Zone, which means there's actually barely any composing going on in these volumes. HOWEVER, vol 22 marks a new development in these books, which is that I got myself a little thermal printer! Which is making the process of putting photos in these books easier & faster. Thanks for the recommendation @colorblindcowboy ! #music #MusicianLife #ComposerLife #PhDLife #PracticeAsResearch
Notebook – Caitlin Rowley's composition notebooks

My #notebook site is finally up to date (given the intentional 6-month delay, & less one rather dull spread for 3 & 4 Feb which got missed - coming soon) with the addition of 2 new vols. PLUS the new Piece Map view has been updated so should be easier to interpret. This update means the site now contains FOUR YEARS of #composition work  . Any questions or suggestions for data you'd like to see drawn out of these, please let me know! https://notebook.caitlinrowley.com/ #process #PracticeAsResearch

I think I might be ready for tomorrow’s play test of the final room of Haydn Space Opera with Open Scores Lab. There is a (quite high) possibility that there may just be too many videos in this room and the whole thing may crash but I decided to try being ambitious. Can always delete some but adding more mid-session would be impossible. Fingers are crossed! #PracticeAsResearch #PracticeBasedResearch #ArtisticResearch #MozillaHubs #VR #VRMusic #BastardAssignments
In case anyone's interested, this one's on 'making the #private #public' so contains sections on defining types of #documentation, how I'm using documentation in pieces in the portfolio and finally a shortish section on managing #vulnerability when using documentation in a piece. #artisticResearch #PracticeBasedResearch #PracticeAsResearch
I’ve been working on a performance-installation project with my regular dance collaborator Irene Fiordilino called “WHERE DOES A BODY END?”. On Friday afternoon we’ll be sharing work in progress at the Laban Building in Deptford from around 12:30 onwards. We’ve shared some of this before but this is the first time we’ve attempted a really long form version. If you fancy coming along to see then PM me for details. #phd #PracticeAsResearch #transdisciplinary
Catching up! Just posted volumes 15 & 16 of my #composition #notebooks online at https://notebook.caitlinrowley.com - this brings things up to early August 2022, with intense work towards the end on From the Exquisite Dark, but also some bits on A Memory of Wind & some other bits & pieces. Almost back on track! #PracticeAsResearch #ArtisticResearch #PracticeBasedResearch

Good #writing session this morning - working on the section about how establish discursive relationships between private & public creative spaces through interdisciplinarity in my work. All underscored by Iris Garrelfs' 'Bedroom Symphonies' on repeat. Realllllly enjoying this: https://linearobsessional.bandcamp.com/album/bedroom-symphonies #listening #experimentalMusic #soundArt #PhDLife #PracticeAsResearch #ArtisticResearch

Good #writing this morning. I'm working through a section on using #interdisciplinarity to establish discursive relationships between private and public creative spaces (i.e. studio/notebook/stage) in my portfolio pieces. Finding this section more satisfying than previous bits in this chapter & I suspect at the end of it I'll be able to chop out a bunch of stuff from other sections, which will be v good. #PhDLife #ArtisticResearch #PracticeAsResearch #PracticeBasedResearch
