Abstract

In this lecture I speak about Theory of Motion which provides a theoretical and methodological framework for creating a notation system for sample-based digital live performance. Initially it was established in 1999 for DJ scratching but evolved to all forms of so-called controllerism. I will provide insights into the historical background of turntablism and offer my personal thoughts on why it has become one of the most fascinating musical art forms of the 21st century.
