MUSIC IN PIECES - printed DIY scores for greyish noise


Tear the card along the lines in the given order. 




Music in Pieces

The score is the instrument is the score. 
The audience is the performer is the audience.

“Music in 24 (30, 64,...) Pieces” is part of the series “Music in Pieces”. The series is created around the idea of a self-performing audience, where the individual listening experience is prior to the social and visual event of making a mess. 


Once the piece is performed with care and after the performing listeners have gone through a sophisticated white noise composition, they are left with exact 24 (30, 64,...) shavings of paper on the floor.  

instructions: 

Rip the paper along the lines in the given order of the numbers. 
  • black = as super slow as possible
  • white (red) = as speedy quick as possible

Music in Pieces was worked out for several occasions in various numbers of "pieces".
