Oliver Brown

Oliver Brown is an experimental artist-composer and scholar from Naarm/Melbourne, Australia and a PhD student in integrated composition, improvisation, and technology (ICIT) at the UC Irvine. His intermedia works frequently take the form of sonic-sculptural installations, often incorporating everyday objects, vernacular media, and interactive technologies. He is deeply committed to amplifying the voices and aesthetics of the historically overlooked. This reflects particularly in his prioritization of mundane, serendipitous aesthetic encounters as well as his research interests in urban ecologies, Fluxus performance art, and contemporary theories of ambiguity, subjectivity, and contingency. Contact him at ocbrown@uci.edu.

Scott Stone

Scott Stone is the research librarian for performing arts at UCI Libraries. He regularly works with, instructs, and supports students and faculty in the dance, drama, and music departments as well as others on campus who intersect with these fields. He has been on the national boards of both the Music Library Association and the Theatre Library Association, and he regularly publishes articles examining aspects of performing arts librarianship. Stone holds a bachelor’s in music from the University of Georgia and a master’s in music and master’s in library science from the University of North Texas. Contact him at stonesm@uci.edu.

In an homage to twentieth-century electronic music, Electrifying Music: The Untold Story of Remi Gassmann celebrates the life and legacy of Remi Gassmann, an American composer and pioneer in electronic sound and music. Best known for his innovative ballet scores and his soundtrack to Alfred Hitchcock’s film The Birds, Gassmann helped introduce twentieth-century audiences to new musical aesthetics and compositional styles and championed the emerging works of his contemporaries.

Through photos, artifacts, and personal correspondence, the exhibit explores Gassmann’s contributions to the field as well as historical milestones in electronic sound and music, from innovative uses at World’s Fairs to advances in sound editing and the explosion of portable audio players. Highlighting the work of twentieth-century composers, it also features the new types of musical notation made possible by technological advances. An array of visually stunning graphic scores demonstrates different approaches developed by composers to represent their musical ideas.

For more details, see the Remi Gassmann Papers in the UCI Libraries Special Collections and Archives.

Curated by Oliver Brown and Scott Stone

Edited by Christina Acevedo and Cheryl Baltes

Exhibit will be on display in the Langson Library from February through December 2024 during regular library hours. Visit our Exhibit Visitor Information webpage for more details.

AI is a wide-ranging branch of computer science. Examples of AI applications, such as self-driving cars and chess-playing computers, rely on deep learning and natural language processing. AI works by combining large amounts of data with computer algorithms to recognize patterns, learn from experience, adjust to new information, and perform human-like tasks. Alan Turing, Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE) Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), was an English mathematician, computer scientist, logician, cryptanalyst, philosopher, and theoretical biologist. Considered the father of AI, Turing was influential in the development of theoretical computer science, formalizing the concepts of algorithms and computation with the creation of the Turing machine.

“In 1968, when UCI faculty began delving into nascent AI, it was largely as theoretical discussions limited by primitive computers. The field has since exploded into an enterprise encompassing everything from financial services to healthcare, from shopping to education.”
