The Longplayer book recounts the journey from composer Jem Finer's first idea for a thousand-year-long piece of music, in the back of a bus in 1995, to its realisation in two listening posts in Sydney, Australia, and London, England, on 31 December 1999. This unique book combines diagrams, jottings and calculations from Finer's personal notebooks with essays by Kodwo Eshun, Janna Levin and Margaret and Christine Wertheim, who discuss notions of time, science, religion and music. The texts are accompanied by a vinyl record containing four musical fragments from Longplayer.

Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Longplayer is a 1000-year musical composition that runs continuously and without repetition from its start on 1 January 2000 until its completion on 31 December 2999. Conceived by musician/composer Jem Finer, Longplayer is an attempt to make sense of such a span of time. Emanating from one present moment to the unfolding future of the next 1000 years, it provides a projection of growth and change. Through an exploration of generative forms of music, rooted in the fields of artificial life and complexity, Finer has developed a system that results in an ever-evolving piece of music. This book focuses on the exploration of different notions of time and our expectations about duration in music. It also explores the connection between a work like Longplayer and its reliance on mathematical and technological sciences, and the role of change. It is accompanied by a 12 vinyl with three 20-minute fragments of the music generated by Longplayer.
