Abstract: In this paper, I take my account of the making of artifactual objects and see whether it can apply to artifactual events. I propose several ways in which one might, in line with my approach, make an artifactual event. On the basis of the last of these ways, I engage in a brief discussion of musical experience, which I suggest is a kind of artifactual event.
