Musical structure



Signifier: Indexical abstract shape that when considered using form will reveal geometric shape and cubist formal thought, further a 12 space hexagonal frame is produced,suggesting ultrachromativism.


Signified: Cubism should be employed to match the beats in the mixing of two records over a 12 tone chromatic scale.


Sign: From producer to audience one should think formally, turntable music will promote the ability to think formally.

 

 



The first character ,Musical Structure-Perspective and Scale, provides the basis for the identification of the uniform measurement of the DJ/PLAYER utilized while mixing from one record to the next, offering a science to the control of a crowd by the performing DJ/PLAYER.

Character one will offer the first perspective engaged in the production of Turntable Music, cubist..link to the Cubist_lecture

Filling the music structure shape with a jewelling technique link to the jewelling bullet technique including the use of silver/chrome paint will provide as an end result, a geometric shape, link to the geometry cept, a triangle.
This triangle, the result of filling an atavistic shell achieved while working the basic shape ,character number one, atavism the uniform reproduction of organisms. The shell was produced via the filling jewel technique or method. When the resulting geometric shape is further developed/abstracted the geometric shape can be seen to offer a basis to formal thought or cubism. The cubist perspective comes with its own research methodology i.e. quantitative and qualitative analysis.Further dissection of the cube reveals a hexagonal flat shape that is a direct reminder of the geography of The Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland. Making the 3D cubist shape flat requires the division of the cube into 12 flat spaces; these 12 spaces offer the basic format for chromatic scale each space having a qualitative relationship with another space in the 12 tone series.
Auto-sub state drawing indexes the aesthetic laws of the Turntable musical form. MEDIA. The Installation does reveal a macro vision of music production suggesting all production is geared towards a 1 ½ hour set.
