Cantologies
Cantology names an approach to the songish impulses that are a ubiquitous aspect of human cultures. It aims to divert our attention from the more restricted objects of musicological and ethnomusicological scrutiny by discerning song formations, conditions of possibility that define experiences of society and history along songish lines. These formations, local phenomena in cantology's broad purview, emerge from the interactions of levels of cultu…
Culture and the Course of Human Evolution
Two Deep-Historical Models of Climate Crisis
In a series of recent essays, Dipesh Chakrabarty has analyzed the Anthropocene as a problem of incommensurable conceptual scales and offered a historiographic meditation on the difficulty of visualizing its threat. After surveying Chakrabarty's analysis, this essay poses two thought experiments in such visualization. Each takes its start from a type of model used in evolutionary studies, respectively, the feedback systems of niche construction an…
Sign, Affect, and Musicking before the Human
Viewed in broad and deep-historical perspective, human musicking can help us to discern a semiotics reaching far beyond the human sign, clarifying its signifying processes while at the same time delimiting them within the larger realm of information.

This biosemiotic analysis, then, indicates three directions forw…

In The Singing of the New World Gary Tomlinson offers histories of ancient music long since silent: the songs of the Indians that Europeans met in the sixteenth century.

He details the expressive and r…

Cultural Dialogics and Jazz
Free of the white person's gaze, black people created their own unique vernacular structures and relished in the double play that these forms bore to white forms. Repetition and revision are fundamental to black artistic forms, from painting and sculpture to music and language use. I decided to analyze the nature and function of precisely because it is repetition and revision, or repetition with a signal difference. Whatever is black about black …
