The aim of the [proximity] scores is to offer modes of collective agency and relation to sensory outputs, where the scores are generated randomly by using a python script made by Madsen; these are based on words connected to the location of their placement. This method of score-making is originating in Madsen's artistic research and discussion of the potential and expansion of score writing to include modes of collectivity and the unconscious. Madsen's approach is rooted in psychoanalyst and philosopher Félix Guattari's ideas around the potential of the unconscious (1979/2019), a mode of thinking developed further into the schizoanalytic ideas of the Capitalism and Schizophrenia writings together with philosopher Gilles Deleuze. This proposal of score-making as a collective-generative tool is discussed in Madsen's doctoral thesis which places the [proximity] scores at the threshold of meaning-making where they make syntactically sense but play with the overall idea of order-signification.
