I will be exploring the evolution of technology in music production and consumption as well as the influences both music and technology have on each other. I will be focusing a lot on technology in modern minimalism which is becoming increasingly popular in part due to technology making the reliance on extreme repetition more performable. One medium where this has become increasingly relevant is film scoring — many directors themselves have stated a preference on working with minimalistic scores as they are easier to edit for their films. I will look into this phenomenon; a minimalistic film composer who I may delve into is Brittel, perhaps the most prominent purely minimalistic film composer working today to acheive any significant success. To really delve into the history of minimalism and technology I will be using Robert Fink’s Repeating Ourselves as a prominent source throughout the paper. I have also linked to a journal article which i referenced heavily alone in this paper topic summary that provide a lot history regarding the evolution of technology in film scoring as well as the introduction of minimalism.
