Icelandic Animated Notation | Pro Islamic Psydonk
Animated notation is a subset of dynamic scoring that features perceptible contact and intersection between elements in a notational fashion. It is usually a dynamic score read from a screen by the artists. Displaying the animated score during the performance can enhance the audiovisual and aesthetic experience for the audience. Animated notation is not bound to a rigid framework and therefore allows to notate anything from just triggering improvisation to the exact display of parameters like pitch or dynamics. Thereby the actions, especially of the artist become more transparent. It is also possible to notate any kind of objects for sound making. Therefore animated notation can be utilized as a common notation for all artists, despite of their instruments.
Goodiepal is a pseudonym for the radical Danish/Faroese artist, storyteller and composer Parl Kristian Bjørn Vester. With a performance style as enthralling as it is unclassifiable, Goodiepal draws on electronic sound, computer technology, spoken word and broader cultural theory. In 2002, Goodiepal gave his first lectures in the USA, among other places at CalArts, Brown University and University of Iowa, on the subjects of radical computer music, radical software and other topics. In 2004 Goodiepal was hired as professor of History and Aesthetics of Electronic Music at DIEM (Danish Institute of Electro-acoustic Music), The Royal Danish Academy of Music in Aarhus, Denmark, and served as head of the electronic music department. Goodiepal also eventually taught Composition at DIEM. In 2008, Goodiepal left The Royal Danish Academy of Music. Upon his resignation, he produced the declaration Five steps in a Gentleman’s War, released as a supplement to the audio piece The Official Mort Aux Vaches Ekstra Extra Walkthrough and the series of images called Snappidaggs. In between releases, projects, and installations, Goodiepal lectures extensively all over the world.
