Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music/Performance

• Performer

  • In this garden, Performer pages model a real person who performs music for listeners: who plays an instrument, sings, improvises, DJs or live-codes. A Performer is a kind of Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music, and the rest follows Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker.

  • What counts as an instance

    • A person whose public performing is a significant part of their identity: soloists, ensemble and orchestra players, singers, bandleaders who play in their band, improvisers, DJs and live coders.
    • The hub's line saying what the person makes names the instrument or voice, as "violinist" or "pipa player".
    • A teacher of an instrument who does not perform in public stays a Logseq/Entity/Person.

  • Boundary cases

    • A person who leads an ensemble from the podium carries Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music/Performance/Conducting in place of Performer.
    • A live coder performs by writing code in front of an audience, and carries Performer: Person/Atsushi Tadokoro. A live coder who also builds the language or software that live coders perform with adds Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music/Tech.
    • A performer who writes the pieces they play adds Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music/Composition. One known mainly for songs in the popular, folk, blues or rock traditions adds Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Music/Composition/Song, as Person/Adrianne Lenker does.
    • A sound artist whose work is performed live, such as a breath or object performance in a gallery, carries Logseq/Entity/Person/Maker/Art/Sound and Performer.

  • Works

    • A performance page links its performers with performer::, as Logseq/Entity/Music/Performance and Logseq/Entity/Music/Recording describe, and those links list the performances in the performer's linked references.
