Situational scores are here defined as scores that deliver time- and context-sensitive score information to musicians at the moment when it becomes relevant. Bhagwati’s research-creation has for some time now centered on the use of such situative scores both for new expressions in eurological music and for the exporation in trans-traditional musicking. In his talk, he will introduce his work with such situational scores, with a strong focus on the body:suit:score. This is an interface currently developed in collaboration of four labs at Concordia and McGill Universities in Montréal: Musicians are clad in a body-hugging suit with embedded technology – this suit becomes their score interface.
