Tropes from the literature on posthumanism, which explores how human experience is impacted as life is increasingly mediated by technology, provide a means by which to describe phenomena in electroacoustic music performance. Although electronics are increasingly common in classical and popular settings. this performance practice is largely undocumented. Approaches utilized to play with live processing, which includes reverberation, harmonization, and modulation effects, are not adequately described by frameworks suggested in the literature, which relies on parallels to acoustic environments, and assumes interactivity. Musical contexts with live processing are difficult to replicate via exclusively acoustic means, and are therefore posthuman.Using a grounded theory methodology, my study investigates posthuman practices in music of Kaija Saariaho, and the independent rock band OWEL. In interviews with musicians who recorded Saariaho's Nymphea, and my own experience working on Nymphea, Frises, and with OWEL, posthuman features of performance such as disembodiment, simulation, hybridity, virtuality, distributed cognition, mutation, and feedback loops emerge as thematic. Distributed cognition, created through amplification, processing, and engineers, profoundly impacts the performer's agency over the sound, and can be articulated through networks of interaction. Tropes are refined to suit performance practice through categorization into features and processes, specification and further distinction of terms such as hybridity and mutation, and cyborg. Practices developed to navigate the posthuman, even if delimited to those containing live processing electronics, are highly individualized and dependent on context and available interfaces.
