| Abstract: | In solutions must be sought which everyone can accept, a large group of players continually form new sub-groups until a stable situation has been found. Players decide whether to move to a new sub-group or remain in their current sub-group with the aim of helping achieve consensus. The nature of such a state is negotiated non-verbally by the players as a group based on the implications of individuals’ actions. Players may utilise a range of strategies, causing the group to find different forms of balance amongst moments of disruption. The title comes from a 1945 text by Dutch educator Kees Boeke in which he defines sociocracy as ‘a real community-democracy, an organisation of the community by the community itself.’ The piece tests how a group of musicians might find a way to organise themselves without explicit leadership. |
