Score: Practices of listening and collision

Drofiak, Nick

Abstract

A score is a research tool that approaches knowledge as a series of relations. A consciously authored, creative work, a score precipitates and establishes the initial terms of an encounter between stories or actors; performed (translated) into a context it can never fully anticipate, a score simultaneously declines certainty or control over the knowledge that results from its performance, while binding that knowledge (and by extension, all learning) to the peculiar circumstances of its construction. This paper is both an exploration of scoremaking’s possibilities and an enaction of a collision of its own: of sonic materialities and epistemologies on the Enisej river.
