Fragment: Accordances - Enactments

Fragment: Accordances – Enactments explores fragments as entities defined by process, reflexivity, and critical interaction with totality. Current musical experience is increasingly shaped by concepts of fragmentation. Listening, creation, and production are often iterative, and imagination and identity in music are similarly fluid, understood not as fixed but as social and curatorial practices. By drawing the long nineteenth century into dialogue with other fields, for example e-textiles, gender studies, and engagement with marginalised musical practices, the project approaches musical practice, interpretation, and repertoire through transhistorical and exploratory lenses. It favours liminalities and processes over result and embraces curation, collation, and reconfiguration as artistic strategies. Fragments, in their openness and historical layering, disrupt fixed narratives and offer dynamic means to rethink musical identity and experience.
