Re: RH commentary on Rotation
Re RH comment Even so, just what is the difference between each player with a single clock showing the total durations of play and tacet as opposed to dividing these up onto different clocks?

Re: RH commentary on Rotation
PM notes and admits it - His assumption is/was: if he has a clock with 1 minute tacet 5 minutes free play, in a trio where the other two players are 5:1 & 3:3, he assumed his playing is in solo mode, a his playing is constant, for most of the piece.

Dan Goren - on agency and the parameter of play - not play
Topic ticket number = T1406 "It seems to me that any attempt to restrict what free improvisers play, presents a threat to the core nature of their music. Generally, 'To play or not play' is about as far as any predetermination can productively go, the player retaining (almost!) complete formal agenc...
