Extension cords, like extended chords, may be elastic or exact in reaching a breaking point. Extended tonalities, extended techniques, and extended play: each stretches a norm without quite breaking it – until it does. This lecture seeks the e-wit on display in the Metropolitan Museum's currently running exhibition: “Musical Bodies” (2026). Comprising 130 pieces, the bodies affirm a great accumulation of cultural capital. The advertising says that the musical bodies have been collected “to illuminate how we express who we are, what we value, and what we believe.” The exhibition affirms a universal “we” premised on humanity’s “innate musicality and shared heritage of harmony.” If humanity shares one thing, and the thing is worth putting on view, then that thing is a dynamic musical body. What is musical is drawn out not through the world of sound but through the many sorts of resemblances that extend a human body first to every sort of musical instrument, be it of string, wind, or percussion, and then on to the many modern music boxes of advanced mechanism. The list of “instruments, paintings, sculptures, drawings, and more” brings “the more” to the question of extension – to the e-wit that wants to know how embodied human minds extend into complex worlds of morality and sociality by musical means. In this show, humanity is the origin for the musical body or the musical way of being in the world, the plug in every sense for everything musical even when the thing seems to be only a mechanical box. What sort of e-wit is at stake when a museum of extraordinary collection becomes an imaginary museum of extraordinary extension?
