Abstract

The document on the music stand in front of performing musicians has become reterritorialized by dynamic and interactive notation enabled by computational and communications technologies. The implications are far reaching for how we create, how we play, and how we listen to music. Considering the mediated musical score as a collaborative workspace, issues of awareness and structural relationship models that were latent in traditional scores now become foregrounded. A survey of current practices illustrates different score-based collaboration and communications strategies and provides motivation for a new “anticipatory” interactive scoring system.
