Abstract / Summary

Much improvised music that has developed since the advent of free jazz has been concerned with the
imposition of structure, often through systems of directed improvisation, or through the use of rule-based approaches
(e.g., game pieces). In this article, we explore the possibility of a networked live-coding system as a structural
intervention mechanism par excellence, through the discussion of two pieces from the repertoire of the Birmingham
Ensemble for Electroacoustic Research
