Truth happens to an idea. So wrote William James in 1907; and twenty-four years later John Dewey argued that artistic experience entailed a process of doing and undergoing. But what do these ideas have to do with music, or with research conducted in and through music--that is, with artistic research? In this collection of essays, fourteen very different authors respond with distinct and challenging perspectives. Some report on their own experiments and experiences; some offer probing analyses of noteworthy practices; some view historical continuities through the lens of pragmatism and artistic experiment. The resulting collection yields new insights into what musicians do, how they experiment, and what they experience--insights that arise not from doctrine, but from diverse voices seeking common ground in and through experimental discourse: artistic research in and of itself.
