[MEI-L] Fwd: First Call for papers for TEI Conference at Northwestern, October 22-24

[Peter Stadler]

Dear all,

some of you may already seen this call for papers but may I nonetheless direct your attention to point 3: 
"We will welcome submissions about TEI and MEI in the context of music in a digital world.“

This looks like a very explicit invitation to the MEI community, so please spread this call widely and consider a submission!

All the best
Peter

> Dear Colleague,

> This is a first call for submissions of papers and posters for the 2014
> TEI meeting, which will be held at Northwestern University, October 22-24,
> 2014. Northwestern is located in Evanston, a northern suburb of Chicago
> with excellent public transportation to Chicago's "Loop."
> 
> The deadline for submissions will be April 30, 2014. More soon about the
> details of the submission process. As in previous years, we welcome
> submissions on anything plausibly related to the Text Encoding Initiative,
> but we have a special interest in the following topics:
> 
> 1.  The TEI is about text "encoding," but encoded texts need to be
> "decoded" by readers who put the encoding to various uses, increasingly
> with the aid of digital tools of one kind or another.  What is the
> scholarly value added by encoding? What can people do with TEI encoded
> texts (and what have they done) that they could not otherwise do or have
> done?
> 
> 2.  In 2015 some 25,000 TEI-encoded Text Creation Partnership (TCP) texts
> printed before 1700 will be released into the public domain, and another
> 45,000 texts will be released in the five years to follow, producing by
> 2020 a deduplicated, structurally encoded, and open source library of just
> about every English book printed before 1800.  This is a very
> consequential event for the documentary infrastructure of Early Modern
> Studies in the Anglophone world. It is also an important event for the
> TEI. 
> 
> 3. As announced earlier, the TEI meeting will partly overlap and share
> some programming with the Chicago Digital Humanities and Computer Science
> Colloquium, a lively regional conference. Music will be one of its
> featured topics and may be a good topic for shared programming. We will
> welcome submissions about TEI and MEI in the context of music in a digital
> world. 
> 
> 
> We have not yet decided on keynote speakers, and I would very much welcome
> off-line suggestions about suitable candidates.
> 
> With best wishes

> Martin Mueller
> Chair, Programming Committee, TEI Conference 2014
> Professor emeritus of English and Classics
> Northwestern University
