APPROACHES TO RESEARCH ON MUSIC AND DANCE IN THE INTERNET ERA

INTERNATIONAL FORUM OF FIVE MUSIC RESEARCH SOCIETIES

ICTM - SEM - IMS - IAML - IASPM

Central Conservatory of Music, Beijing, 11-14 July 2018


Call for Papers for IMS sessions


We have extended the deadline for submission to 9 February 2018. Please 
submit your abstract by mail to f.wiering at uu.nl. A quick word of 
clarification: submissions need not to be about music AND dance but may 
address only one of the two. Relevant workin computational musicology 
and MIR is highly appreciated!

/Forum Abstract/

  The internet age has brought forward a series of new approaches to the 
research of music and dance, and new patterns of scholarship have been 
developed, both within different disciplines and across the globe. 
Scholars from five global research associations (ICTM, SEM, IMS, IAML, 
IASPM) will meet to present and discuss the new methodologies now 
emerging, looking both for commonalities and distinctive new departures. 
Inter-, multi-, trans- and cross-disciplinary approaches will be 
welcome, including those that reach out beyond the specifically academic 
domain toward new social and economic usages. We ask how these new 
possibilities provide a means to generate respect for and engagement 
within traditional, historical or popular forms of music and dance, as 
well as allowing our imagination to reach knowledgeably across 
conventional geographical, social and historical boundaries. The Forum 
will interleave discipline-specific and interdisciplinary sessions.

/Submission Guidelines/

Each partner society and the host institution will gather a set of 
contributions, which will be organized into a programme by a joint 
programme committee, which includes representatives from each society as 
well as from the host institution. The following guidelines are specific 
to those seeking an invitation as part of the IMS block of participants. 
(Note that if you are a member of more than one of the scholarly 
associations listed above, you may be considered by each for inclusion 
in the programme as part of their block, but that no individual can 
finally deliver more than one paper at the Forum.)

Proposals are now welcome for individual papers (20 minutes’ duration, 
followed by 10 minutes for questions and discussion) and panels (60/ 90 
minutes, followed by up to 30 minutes of discussion). Proposals should 
be submitted to IMS representative on the joint programme committee 
Frans Wiering at mailto:f.wiering at uu.nl, by Friday 9 February 2018. A 
maximum of 20 presenters will be selected for participation in the IMS 
block.

Each proposal should contain:

  * (each) speaker’s name, title, affiliation (where applicable), and
    contact email;
  * an abstract summarising the paper or panel. Abstracts for individual
    papers should be 200/-/250 words in length; those for panels should
    be of 750-1,000 words;
  * the proposal can be submitted as an email attachment in doc, docx,
    or rtf format;
  * use “ICTM Beijing Forum proposal” as the subject line for your email;
  * prospective participants should preferably be members of IMS, an IMS
    study group or, in the case of multi-disciplinary proposals, of one
    of the other scholarly associations listed.

/Local Arrangements/

  The forum, coordinated by Svanibor Pettan and Zhang Boyu, will be 
hosted by the Central Conservatory of Music, Beijing. Partially 
subsidized hotel accommodation is available for those selected, and all 
meals will be provided on a complimentary basis. The registration fee 
for those selected will be paid by the Central Conservatory of Music. 
The Forum also includes a programme of concerts and associated events. 
Attendees will need to be able to pay their own travel costs.
