IIIc., Forgetfulness as a Critical Tool
If we use this map in order to articulate and orientate ourselves as we engage in an artistic method of playing and replaying from memory, we can use the analytic space in between playing and replaying with awareness of the role that the forgetfulness, intrinsic to improvisation and the narrative language with which we form our experiences of playing, can be questioned according to norms of form, i.e., aesthetics, tradition, and ontology.
In summary, within our research project, forgetfulness is intrinsic to our supplementary linguistic analyses of musical improvisation, and we evaluate our replayed improvisation according to subjectively biased narratives formed by inapt memories on which norms of criteria are based.
