Technology-Assisted Performance of Polytemporal Music

This paper is an intermediate report of an ongoing artistic research project on technology-assisted performance practice. It describes the application Polytempo Network and some works that were realised using this application in the course of the last two years. The different compositional approaches chosen for every individual work and the experiences gathered during the process of composing, rehearsing and performing these works are discussed. The leading question is to what extent the usage of this technology is aesthetically significant.
