Morphology of the Amorphous: Spatial texture, motion and words
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 November 2017
Abstract
On reflection upon my own experience as a composer in theory and practice, I find that terms not only define but also propose. In finding words for spatial texture, I have discovered that spatial texture itself is always proposing: motion of sound suggests texture of space. The texture of space creates an elusive materiality. Form is no better than formlessness.
