Música experimental no Nordeste: iniciativas, dispositivos tecnológicos e processos criativos

Abstract

This research aims to document experimental music produced in the Northeast of Brazil through a multi-case study involving mapping and documentation of technological devices, initiatives and various creative processes of a sample of agents inserted in the context of experimental music, with the objective of increasing artistic and knowledge production in music. Due to the scarcity of texts addressing the subject presented here, this investigation contemplates artistic projects linked to agents of experimental music in the region mentioned beforehand. The methodology in which this study is based on reflects the ideas of Piekut (2011) that considers the mapping of an artistic network is made without ignoring social issues in the music field. As a result, a growing and vast artistic production was documented, in addition to collaborations by seven of the nine States of the Northeast, resulting in compositions, meetings and exhibitions of experimental music.
