FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS:
We are pleased to announce the Fourth International Symposium on Music and
Sonic Art: Practices and Theories (MuSA 2013), an interdisciplinary event to
be held in Karlsruhe, Germany at the Institut für Musikwissenschaft und
Musikinformatik (IMWI) (http://imwi.hfm.eu). The dates of the Symposium are
24-26 May, 2013.
Proposals for sessions and individual papers for the Fourth International
Symposium on Music and Sonic Art: Practices and Theories are invited from
academics, independent researchers, practitioners and post-graduate
students. Presentation formats include academic research papers (20 minutes
+ 10 minutes for discussion); reports on practice-based/artistic research or
educational programmes (20 minutes + 10 minutes for discussion); and
workshops and panel sessions (45 minutes + 15 minutes for discussion). The
Symposium committee encourages presentations in which practice forms an
integral part. All proposals will be ‘blind’ peer-reviewed. The Symposium
language will be English.
THEME AND TOPICS:
The principal aim of MuSA 2013 is to advance interdisciplinary
investigations in – as well as between – music and sonic art. Even if
widely divergent on the surface, there are various overlaps between the
concepts and techniques that underlie ‘traditional’ subject areas such as
historical/critical musicology, performance studies, analysis, aesthetics,
ethnomusicology and sonic art theories and practices. Interdisciplinary
explorations within and across these domains benefit all those who engage
creatively and/or as scholars with the phenomena of sound and music.
Proposals dealing with any subject area that is within the broad remit of
the Symposium will be welcomed. Hence, the Symposium topics include – but
are not limited to – the following, in relation to musical and sonic art
practices and theories:
• Technology in relation to performance and/or composition
• Performance aesthetics
• Practice as research: methodology and technique
• Critical discourses on creativity, embodiment, expression
• Cultural and social processes
• Inter-artistic explorations: collaborations and tensions
• Phenomenological, psychological, cultural and historical analyses of
creation/production and reception
ABSTRACT FORMAT:

peer-reviewed, please do not include information that might facilitate
