The revised edition of Sync or Swarm promotes an ecological view of
musicking, moving us from a subject-centered to a system-centered
view of improvisation. It explores cycles of organismic
self-regulation, cycles of sensorimotor coupling between organism
and environment, and cycles of intersubjective interaction mediated
via socio-technological networks. Chapters funnel outward, from the
solo improviser (Evan Parker), to nonlinear group dynamics (Sam
Rivers trio), to networks that comprise improvisational
communities, to pedagogical dynamics that affect how individuals
learn, completing the hermeneutic circle. Winner of the Society for
Ethnomusicology's Alan Merriam prize in its first edition, the
revised edition features new sections that highlight
electro-acoustic and transcultural improvisation, and concomitant
issues of human-machine interaction and postcolonial studies.
