This dissertation arises from an interest in collectivity, experimentation, and the relations between them. Experimentation here denotes an embrace of the unknownness or unknowability of a practice's outcome. It therefore implies, or is aligned with, the potential for different futures or worlds. The dissertation analyzes the contextually specific conditions, limitations, and potentials of collective-experimental practices surrounding popular music; that is, it explores how particular cultural formations articulate modes of experimentation and collectivity in relation to-as responses to and reconstructions of-their respective conjunctural moments. Chapter 1 concerns the "free folk" formation with its psychedelic, improvised musics, active in the United States in the 1990s and early 21st century. Chapter 2 maps the British "industrial" formation with its aesthetically and socially heterogeneous experiments, active from the 1970s onwards. Chapter 3 analyzes the "epistemic" formation, a more recently emergent, transnational assemblage of artists engaged in critical-reflexive, politically informed experimentation. Each of these cultural formations is governed by a specific sensibility-a logic of lived experience or "structure of feeling" (Raymond Williams). The dissertation gathers diverse materials (songs, interviews, articles, and more) and analyzes them according to an expanded semiotic framework in order to map the formations' defining sensibilities. Free folk's collective-experimental sensibility privileges community, multiplicity, and transformation in response to an experienced flatness of the world and strangeness of the present. Industrial's esoteric-experimental sensibility negotiates a dominant sense of crisis in the United Kingdom of the 1970s by attempting to unveil and/or embrace the hidden and the secret. The epistemic formation's reflexive-experimental sensibility responds to crises of knowledge, enclosures of popular imagination, and oscillations of the political by investing in critical knowledges to re-articulate experimentation and imagination. Following an evaluation of the potentials and limitations of modes of collectivity and experimentation articulated by the three formations, the dissertation closes with a renewed call for rigorous, careful, and collaborative engagement with experimental practices and the realms of potential they attempt to access.
