During this evening we focus on archiving De Player’s 'Pushing Scores' project. This project that researches the present-day meaning of the 'graphic score' has been running for the last 2-3 years. **[De Player](https://www.deplayer.nl/)** asked **Varia** to set up a contextual and technical environment for a web based archival publication of the project. Varia will explain its approach to this during an event with multiple presentations.

**[Valentina Vuksic](http://trippingthroughruntime.net/)** will perform a live set. She approaches computers with transducers that transform electromagnetic radiation into sound in choreographically setups, the ‘runtime’ of executed software is staged for an audience to provide an acoustic experience of logic encountering the physical world.

|
||
**[Ana Guedes](http://www.ana-guedes.com/)** is introducing her project Untitled Records; a performative sound installation weaving historical and emotional narratives through the “instrumentalisation” of a collection of records.
|
||
|
||
**Niek Hilkmann** (part of Varia) will present his [UNI](https://nothingmore.work/s/in/our-first-audible-profitable-economy-exhibition/) (Universal Notation Ideal), a Pay2Print investigation in the simultaneous production and distribution of standardised graphical scores through the mediation of an automaton. It is developed by Niek Hilkmann and Joseph Knierzinger, based on a new notation system that is created to help conceptual composers in developing and exchanging conceptual music within one uniform language. The actual printing of the thermal paper is a stochastic performance in itself. By emphasizing this aspect of the machine as a musical entrepreneur, earning its own income, we explore the conditions of mechanised labour within the cultural industry and its corresponding ethics.

##about Pushing Scores
|
||
What are the possibilities of graphic scores, in a day and age in which graphic notation is still usually seen as a ‘drawing’, serving as some kind of sheet music?
|
||
|
||
In an attempt to redefine this concept, DE PLAYER compiles a programme in which artists, musicians, theoreticians and practitioners are invited to participate. The collective goal is to develop and present new audio-visual and media-technical forms of graphic notation through artistic research and development.
|
||
|
||
Based on our compilation of the most contemporary and innovative graphic notation practices in the fields of music, sound art, performance art, e-culture, new-media art, graphic design and media design, we introduce artists and designers from various creative disciplines to a national and international audience, with the goal of collectively developing new forms of graphic notation.
