"Between 1971 and 2007, Karlheinz Stockhausen and George Crumb composed twenty-seven works for flute featuring the integration of music and lighting art, according to research conducted as part of this dissertation project. My premiere of I Dream of Coloured Inks for Two Flutes and Computer (2013) by Michael S. Rothkopf became the next contribution to flute and light repertoire; and in an effort to further explore this intermedia art form, I commissioned four new flute compositions by Anna Meadors, Kyle Rowan, Stuart Saunders Smith, and Jacob Thiede. This document provides a narrative of background information, aesthetic discussions, lighting performance guides, and scores for these works. The lighting performance guides are informed by my performance of the compositions and collaboration with their respective composers. Appendices include a list of works for flute and light by Karlheinz Stockhausen, interviews with all five composers, and an interview with George Crumb. Cinematic videos made with the help of audio and visual team Wayne Reich and Ben Singer, along with a cast of performers, are embedded in the document, completing the project. Ultimately, this project serves to facilitate future performances of these flute compositions and inspire the advance of music and light intermedia as a holistic art form."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.
