ABSTRACT
Making use of notions such as “radical improvisation” and “resonance,” Giovanni Matteucci focuses on the articulation of expressive forms in the event of improvisation. Radical (“free”) improvisation is conceived as the coming into existence of a form through its materialization. “Resonance,” a concept taken from Merleau-Ponty (and nowadays extensively treated by Hartmut Rosa), concerns the aesthetic experience of attending to a radical improvisation by reacting to, or inhabiting, what happens without pre-formed expectations, in a kind of living vibration.
