'Charivari Press' is a Canadian publisher of writing in the areas of cultural theory, political radicalism and experimental literature. Its recently published and upcoming list of contributors include composers, artists and critical theorists, such as: Hildegard Westerkamp, John Cage, Max Neuhaus, R. Murray Schafer, Alvin Lucier, Douglas Kahn and Richard Kostelanetz.
The term political radicalism denotes political principles focused on altering social structures through revolutionary or other means and changing value systems in fundamental ways.
Experimental literature refers to written work—usually fiction or poetry—that emphasizes innovation, most especially in technique.
Hildegard Westerkamp is a Canadian composer, radio artist, teacher and sound ecologist of German origin. She studied flute and piano at the Conservatory of Music in Freiburg, West Germany from 1966 - 1968 and moved to Canada in 1975. She received a Bachelor of Music from the University of British Columbia in 1972 and a Masters in Arts from Simon Fraser University in 1988. She taught acoustic communication at Simon Fraser University from 1982 - 1991.
Charivari was established by the avant-garde Rebel Arts Group in Toronto in 1990 as part of their efforts to promote a critical, political and theoretical art practice, but it remained mostly inactive while members focused on the art magazine Sub Rosa and other projects. Charivari began publishing in earnest in 2011 and garnered critical praise. Their first title was a 20th anniversary edition of Indecent Acts in a Public Place: Sports, Insolence and Sedition (Rod Dubey). [1] This was followed by Music IS Rapid Transportation…from the Beatles to Xenakis (ed. Daniel Kernohan), [2] and Rant & Dawdle: The Fictional Memoir of Colston Wilmott As Imagined by William E. Smith (Bill Smith (Canadian musician). [3]
The avant-garde are people or works that are experimental, radical, or unorthodox with respect to art, culture, or society. It may be characterized by nontraditional, aesthetic innovation and initial unacceptability, and it may offer a critique of the relationship between producer and consumer.
