Curating Contemporary Music
<p>What are the roles of the curator in the music field, and how does the work materialize? What kind of practices are involved? <em>Defragmentation – Curating Contemporary Music</em> was a project that attempted to highlight some of the problems and urgent questions that we find in today’s contemporary music scene. Within the frame of ideas around gender, diversity, decolonization and technology, Defragmentation looked at – and tried to understand – structures in various institutions of contemporary music. The ambition was to investigate how the urgent sense of fragmentation and disconnection that exists in the public sphere at the moment is materialized in the musical field.</p>
