Osertag in concert. "With entrance into Ostertag's world comes a severe attitude adjustment. You have to curb your brain, dump your 'common sense' judgments, and peel away the calluses that have built up over the vulnerable core of your senses. Listening becomes cultural time travel at warp speed. Time, however, jumps off its linear tracks. You have to accept both the simultaneity of your feelings and your hapless inability to control them."-- San Francisco Bay Guardian |

Wednesday, January 19 | 4:00 | CNMAT | Vijay Iyer | Talk | Free |
Vijay Iyer: The Role of Embodiment in Music Perception and Cognition Vijay writes, Finally I speak of musical improvisation as a kind of dialectic between symbolic and situational constraints. Musical meaning in improvisation depends on temporal situatedness, a crucial aspect of embodiment. In conclusion I argue for an enlarged view of music perception, incorporating the body, temporality, and culture. Vijay Iyer is
a pianist, composer, and bandleader recently described by Amiri
Baraka as "an oncoming phenomenon, already up to his fingers
in the most advanced music of this wildly contradictory age."
In addition, he has had a unique academic career in tandem with
his musical pursuits. He received a B.S. in mathematics and physics
from Yale and a Masters in Physics from U.C. |
