Abstract
In this article I offer eight short meditations (or perhaps provocations) on the theme of musical signification. They each cover a different theme—composition, rehearsal, sung and spoken words, writing about music, improvisation, cultural politics, technology, and listening to music—with the aim of evoking a rich and multidimensional sense of musical meaning. Their form and style are influenced by my reading of the diffractive philosophy of Karen Barad and are meant to invite a creative reading of the eight sections through one another.
期刊介绍：
Jazz Research Journal explores a range of cultural and critical views on jazz. The journal celebrates the diversity of approaches found in jazz scholarship and provides a forum for interaction and the cross-fertilisation of ideas. It is a development and extension of The Source: Challenging Jazz Criticism founded in 2004 at the Leeds College of Music. The journal aims to represent a range of disciplinary perspectives on jazz, from musicology to film studies, sociology to cultural studies, and offers a platform for new thinking on jazz. In this respect, the editors particularly welcome articles that challenge traditional approaches to jazz and encourage writings that engage with jazz as a discursive practice. Jazz Research Journal publishes original and innovative research that either extends the boundaries of jazz scholarship or explores themes which are central to a critical understanding of the music, including the politics of race and gender, the shifting cultural representation of jazz, and the complexity of canon formation and dissolution. In addition to articles, the journal features a reviews section that publishes critical articles on a variety of media, including recordings, film, books, educational products and multimedia publications.
