Open Form. An Expanded Performer´s Role.
(2021)
author(s): Else Olsen Storesund
connected to: Norwegian Artistic Research Programme
published in: Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen
Open form is a designation on a type of composition that is in some degree open. It is also a term in relation to understanding a genre. This means that I do not include for example Bach´s Die Kunst der Fuge (circa 1740), but Stockhausen´s Aus den sieben Tagen (1968) could be included. This project, however, is centered around the composers from The New York Scool, and composers related to The New York School: Christian Wolff, Pauline Oliveros, John Cage, Earle Brown, Morton Feldman and Cornelius Cardew.
An Open form composition is graphic, text- or number-based. It may also be a combination of these three notational techniques and/or in combination with conventional staff line-notation.

(Un-) settling Sites and Styles
(2021)
author(s): Einar Røttingen, Bente Elisabeth Finseraas
published in: Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen
(Un-)settling sites and styles: In search of new expressive means.
Eight performers (voice, piano, violin, cello), one musicologist and one composer aspired to unsettle their habitual ways of working with musical interpretation of 20th century and contemporary Norwegian composers. By collaborating to develop new perspectives and methods, they investigated questions of style and how different sites influenced their rehearsals and performances.
How do performers find new expressive means? How can intersubjective exchange within a research group contribute to articulating tacit knowledge? How can mutual unsettling approaches influence conventional or subjective attitudes of fidelity to a score or a performance tradition? How can novel sounds, musical material and musical meaning emerge beyond prejudiced conceptions or through improvisation?
The three-year project was facilitated by the Norwegian Artistic Research Programme and the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design (Grieg Academy), University of Bergen, and resulted in texts, sound recordings, videos, and new commented score editions.

Design plass i "Design Thinking"
(2020)
author(s): Bente Irminger
published in: Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen
De siste årene har tilbudet av kurs i «Design Thinking» økt markant. Kursene kan ta form av et par timers seminar med overskriften «Lær Design Thinking». Slike kurs kan gi innsikt i Design Thinking-prosessen, men kan også medføre at Design Thinking fort blir oppfattet som et trendy buzzord. Design Thinking er nemlig ikke en kvikkfiks på ethvert problem. For å kunne gjennomføre en god Design Thinking-prosess trenger du mer enn et introduksjonskurs: Design Thinking er en prosess som krever kunnskap, øvelse, tid og hardt arbeid.

A growing interest in creativity is opening up new roles for the designer- but also creating a need for clarification of these roles
(2020)
author(s): Bente Irminger
published in: Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen
In recent years, “Design Thinking” as an interdisciplinary innovation process has increasingly led trade and industry and the public sector to take an interest in the design profession. While this profession has traditionally been related to the design of products and shaping of surroundings, today design can also concern methods and processes, making the profession relevant for additional areas of society. In this article, we present some key characteristics of the design profession today, and also discuss which expectations and different designer roles newly qualified designers meet and may come to meet in the future.

Økt interesse for kreativitet åpner for nye designerroller- men skaper også behov for rolleavklaringer
(2020)
author(s): Bente Irminger
published in: Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen
De siste årene har den tverrfaglige innovasjonsprosessen «Design Thinking» gjort at en større del av næringsliv og offentlig sektor har begynt å interessere seg for designfaget. Mens faget tradisjonelt har vært knyttet til utforming av produkter og forming av omgivelser, kan design i dag handle om metoder og prosesser, noe som gjør faget relevant for flere samfunnsområder. I artikkelen presenterer vi noen hovedkjennetegn ved designfaget i dag, og drøfter også hvilke forventninger og ulike designerroller nyutdannede designere møter og kan komme til å møte i fremtiden.
