About this Event
Don't miss this exciting LASER Santa Fe talk with artist and scientist Marco Buongiorno Nardelli in the . In conjunction with his exhibition at the 2024 Currents New Media Festival, Dr. Buongiorno Nardelli's fascinating talk will discuss how the hidden structure of music can be described as a complex data system using the tools of network theory with musical examples. If the elements of a data set are thought of as “nodes”, then the emergence of relations between them, “edges”, yields a network. Relations between nodes determine when individual nodes are connected (for example, in a social network people are connected according to their acquaintances, collaborations, common interests, etc.).
Buongiorno Nardelli will discuss principles of compositional design by the direct analysis of such networks, and how he uses these ideas as foundation of his practice as composer and media artist.
Marco Buongiorno Nardelli is a composer, installation artist and computational physicist who brings a platform for Art/Science integration rooted in his profound and extensive expertise in development of scientific and artistic software and his vision for sustainable community software development. He is Regents Professor at the University of North Texas, with academic appointments in both the Department of Physics and the Division of Composition Studies, a member of iARTA, the Initiative for Advanced Research in Technology and the Arts and CEMI, the Center for Experimental Music and Intermedia, and an External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute where he directs an initiative in “Music Complexity”. As both an Artist and a Scientist, his work is intrinsically inter- and cross-disciplinary: his work in Physics and in Art is the natural extension of his practices as a creative thinker.
