Calendar Variations is a collaborative art research project that responds to Kaprow’s Calendar score, 1971. Developed by a group of artist researchers from On The Edge Research, the project started as a response to the Unexpected Variations research festival, September 2010, at the Orpheus Research Institute in Musical Practice, Ghent.
First of all we performed the score through drawing, interpreting drawing through a variety of possible responses. Each individual was invited to respond from within their own aesthetic understanding. We then came together and shared our productions, seeking agreement about how to perform the score together. We decided to walk the score.
