Abstract

This essay addresses questions about the creation process of the short film Presences and its influence on the research I develop on sensory aspects and physical presence in free musical improvisation. To develop this study, I employed virtual communication platforms to improvise and submit musical improvisation pieces to the internet, to then locate elements that clarify discussions and promote new perspectives on this matter.
