This is a very basic plugin that uses Verovio running on an external web server to provide conversion, so it requires an internet connection. If you are interested in more details, please get in touch. Instructions for how to install the plugin is available in the Readme on the GitHub repository. Once installed you should see an "MEI Export" option in your "Plugins" menu. Note that we have tested it on both MuseScore 3 and 4, and it seems to work on both. However, since the MuseScore 4 core plugin system is currently being reworked, we can't guarantee that it will continue to work in MuseScore 4. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Please distribute widely] We are pleased to announce a call for papers, posters, panels, and workshops for “Encoding Cultures,” a joint conference of the annual Music Encoding Conference and Text Encoding Initiative Members’ Meeting. The conference will be held 5–8 September 2023 (Tue-Fri) at Paderborn University, Germany, with pre-conference workshops 4–5 September 2023 (Mon-Tue). This event brings together, for the first time, the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) and Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) communities, both of which are involved in the digitization and encoding of cultural heritage artifacts. While musical and textual artifacts have fundamental differences, there are many overlapping approaches in regard to data modeling, encoding theory, and digital publication. MEI and TEI also share technical tools and services, as both XML vocabularies are formally expressed using TEI's customization and documentation language. The conference topic is Encoding Cultures, understood both as the encoding of multiple cultures and cultural outputs as well as the variety of encoding cultures that exist within and across our communities. Encoding Cultures will be the 23rd annual meeting of the TEI community and the 11th annual Music Encoding Conference, a cross-disciplinary venue for the MEI community and all who are interested in the digital representation of music. The deadline for submissions is April 16, 2023. Please find more information and the text of the full Call for Proposals at https://teimec2023.uni-paderborn.de/cfp.html.

These resources include large collections of audio and scores, bibliographic and biographic data, and performance ephemera – not to mention the ‘hidden’ existence of these in other digital content. With such large and wide ranging opportunities come new challenges in methods, principally in adapting technological solutions to assist musicologists in identifying, studying, and disseminating scholarly insights from amongst this tangle of forms, formats, and tools. This workshop provides an introduction to computational and informatics methods that can be, and have been, successfully applied to musicology. Many of these techniques have their foundations in computer science, library and information science, mathematics and most recently Music Information Retrieval (MIR); sessions are presented from the perspective of interdisciplinary collaborations with musicologists by leading researchers in the field. The workshop comprises a series of lectures and hands-on sessions, supplemented with reports from musicologists Lizzie Buckle and Chanda VanderHart giving examples of exemplars of current digital research. Theoretical lectures are paired with practical sessions in which attendees are guided through their own exploration of the topics and tools covered. There will also be plenary lectures on digital humanities topics, optional evening events (some at additional cost), including a walking tour of Oxford, and an evening drinks and poster session at the Weston Library. Please note that numbers for this workshop are limited, and we cannot guarantee that places will still be available towards the end of the registration period. Workshop attendees should have some background or familiarity with music or musicology. No familiarity with digital methods is assumed. A basic grasp of music notation and theory is beneficial when putting digital methods from the course in context. Some familiarity with programming may be beneficial, but not essential: the strand includes a small number of sessions which include some programming, which take the form of guided notebooks. Attendees must bring their own laptop running MacOS, Windows, or Linux; tablets (e.g. iPadOS) are not sufficient. Attendees must have administrator access to their laptop and be comfortable installing and configuring new software--the strand relies on several pieces of specialised software which attendees will need to install and run on their own machines.

The conference will be held 5–8 September 2023 (Tue-Fri) at Paderborn University, Germany, with pre-conference workshops 4–5 September 2023 (Mon-Tue). This event brings together, for the first time, the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) and Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) communities, both of which are involved in the digitization and encoding of cultural heritage artifacts. While musical and textual artifacts have fundamental differences, there are many overlapping approaches in regard to data modeling, encoding theory, and digital publication. MEI and TEI also share technical tools and services, as both XML vocabularies are formally expressed using TEI's customization and documentation language. The conference topic is Encoding Cultures, understood both as the encoding of multiple cultures and cultural outputs as well as the variety of encoding cultures that exist within and across our communities. Encoding Cultures will be the 23rd annual meeting of the TEI community and the 11th annual Music Encoding Conference, a cross-disciplinary venue for the MEI community and all who are interested in the digital representation of music. We look forward to seeing you in Paderborn!

Given DLfM’s return this year as a satellite event of the ISMIR conference, we welcome papers that apply MIR technologies to “music documents” with a focus on cultural heritage preservation. Scores and music documents have been digitized by libraries and archives worldwide for preservation and access. Some of these digital libraries' resources are being converted into symbolic files representing the music content of the documents. These symbolic music files, in turn, allow for more interaction with the music—through rendering, playback, search, and computational music analysis. At this DLfM congress, we aim to stimulate discussions around the use of MIR technologies in symbolic music and their implications for cultural heritage preservation. The organizing committee strongly encourages papers and posters that address the theme, however, we welcome all papers addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM. Specific examples of topics traditionally covered at DLfM can be found at https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk. Proceedings of the DLfM 2023 are expected to be published in ACM ICPS as an Open Access publication as in previous years. Like last year, we are planning to be able to offer authors an open access proceedings paper without passing on the cost to authors. IMPORTANT DATES (AoE) * Paper (full paper and short paper) submission deadline: Friday, June 30, 2023 * Notification of paper acceptance: Friday, September 01, 2023 * Poster submission deadline: Friday, September 08, 2023 * Camera-ready submission deadline (full and short papers): Friday, September 29, 2023 * Conference registration deadline: TBA * Conference: Friday, November 10, 2023, at Biblioteca del Conservatorio di Milano SUBMISSIONS Paper submissions * Paper length: We invite full papers (up to 8 pages excluding references) or short papers (up to 4 pages excluding references). * Submissions: work is submitted to DLfM via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dlfm2023). * Format: Submissions must be in English, formatted according to the appropriate ACM template (see template below), in PDF format, and A4 size. Authors will need to follow ACM's instructions for formatting carefully. Assistance will be provided from the proceedings chair. * Templates: Authors must use either the LaTeX template (https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip, use the 'sigconf', 'review', and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), the LaTeX + Overleaf template (https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machiner y-acm-sig-proceedings-template/bmvfhcdnxfty, use the 'review' and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), or the MS Word template (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/word_style/interim -template-style/interim-layout.docx). Historically, LaTeX versions have been easier to process into camera-ready versions. Therefore, we encourage all authors to use the LaTeX (or LaTeX + Overleaf) template if possible. * Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, excluding the bibliography (i.e., references can be included on pages over the specified limits). Poster submissions * Submission: The initial poster submission consists of an abstract which outlines both the scholarly content and broad details of the proposed layout in 500 words or fewer. * Format: Posters will be formatted in A0 specifications. A template will be sent closer to the conference date to authors of accepted poster abstracts. All accepted posters will also be required to submit before the conference date a digital copy to be shared publicly on the conference web page. Review and Ethics Papers (long and short) will be double blind peer reviewed by 2-3 members of the programme committee. For accepted paper submissions, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by the conference registration deadline. DLfM conforms to the usual conventions for publication ethics. For instance, we endeavour to provide an effective reviewing process that is fair to all submissions, with reviews from experts in the subject area. In turn, we expect authors to ensure anonymity in the original submission as far as practically possible, (for instance by not uploading the submission to public website and/or removing any currently public unpublished preprints while it is under review) and that submissions to DLfM are not under active consideration by another conference or journal.

These resources include large collections of audio and scores, bibliographic and biographic data, and performance ephemera – not to mention the ‘hidden’ existence of these in other digital content. With such large and wide ranging opportunities come new challenges in methods, principally in adapting technological solutions to assist musicologists in identifying, studying, and disseminating scholarly insights from amongst this tangle of forms, formats, and tools. This workshop provides an introduction to computational and informatics methods that can be, and have been, successfully applied to musicology. Many of these techniques have their foundations in computer science, library and information science, mathematics and most recently Music Information Retrieval (MIR); sessions are presented from the perspective of interdisciplinary collaborations with musicologists by leading researchers in the field. The workshop comprises a series of lectures and hands-on sessions, supplemented with reports from musicologists Lizzie Buckle and Chanda VanderHart giving examples of exemplars of current digital research. Theoretical lectures are paired with practical sessions in which attendees are guided through their own exploration of the topics and tools covered. There will also be plenary lectures on digital humanities topics, optional evening events (some at additional cost), including a walking tour of Oxford, and an evening drinks and poster session at the Weston Library. Please note that numbers for this workshop are limited, and we cannot guarantee that places will still be available towards the end of the registration period. Workshop attendees should have some background or familiarity with music or musicology. No familiarity with digital methods is assumed. A basic grasp of music notation and theory is beneficial when putting digital methods from the course in context. Some familiarity with programming may be beneficial, but not essential: the strand includes a small number of sessions which include some programming, which take the form of guided notebooks. Attendees must bring their own laptop running MacOS, Windows, or Linux; tablets (e.g. iPadOS) are not sufficient. Attendees must have administrator access to their laptop and be comfortable installing and configuring new software--the strand relies on several pieces of specialised software which attendees will need to install and run on their own machines.

At this DLfM congress, we aim to stimulate discussions around the use of MIR technologies in symbolic music and their implications for cultural heritage preservation. The organizing committee strongly encourages papers and posters that address the theme, however, we welcome all papers addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM. Specific examples of topics traditionally covered at DLfM can be found at https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk. Proceedings of the DLfM 2023 are expected to be published in ACM ICPS as an Open Access publication as in previous years. Like last year, we are planning to be able to offer authors an open access proceedings paper without passing on the cost to authors. IMPORTANT DATES (AoE) * Paper (full paper and short paper) submission deadline: Friday, June 30, 2023 * Notification of paper acceptance: Friday, September 01, 2023 * Poster submission deadline: Friday, September 08, 2023 * Camera-ready submission deadline (full and short papers): Friday, September 29, 2023 * Conference registration deadline: Friday, November 03, 2023 * Conference: Friday, November 10, 2023, at Biblioteca del Conservatorio di Milano SUBMISSIONS Paper submissions * Paper length: We invite full papers (up to 8 pages excluding references) or short papers (up to 4 pages excluding references). * Submissions: work is submitted to DLfM via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dlfm2023). * Format: Submissions must be in English, formatted according to the appropriate ACM template (see template below), in PDF format, and A4 size. Authors will need to follow ACM's instructions for formatting carefully. Assistance will be provided from the proceedings chair. * Templates: Authors must use either the LaTeX template (https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip, use the 'sigconf', 'review', and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), the LaTeX + Overleaf template (https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machiner y-acm-sig-proceedings-template/bmvfhcdnxfty, use the 'review' and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), or the MS Word template (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/word_style/interim -template-style/interim-layout.docx). Historically, LaTeX versions have been easier to process into camera-ready versions. Therefore, we encourage all authors to use the LaTeX (or LaTeX + Overleaf) template if possible. * Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, excluding the bibliography (i.e., references can be included on pages over the specified limits). Poster submissions * Submission: The initial poster submission consists of an abstract which outlines both the scholarly content and broad details of the proposed layout in 500 words or fewer. * Format: Posters will be formatted in A0 specifications. A template will be sent closer to the conference date to authors of accepted poster abstracts. All accepted posters will also be required to submit before the conference date a digital copy to be shared publicly on the conference web page. Review and Ethics Papers (long and short) will be double blind peer reviewed by 2-3 members of the programme committee. For accepted paper submissions, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by the conference registration deadline. DLfM conforms to the usual conventions for publication ethics. For instance, we endeavour to provide an effective reviewing process that is fair to all submissions, with reviews from experts in the subject area. In turn, we expect authors to ensure anonymity in the original submission as far as practically possible, (for instance by not uploading the submission to public website and/or removing any currently public unpublished preprints while it is under review) and that submissions to DLfM are not under active consideration by another conference or journal.

The elements that we discuss are often concepts and ideas that this evidential material may embody and exemplify, but which are not wholly contained by that material. For example, a musical theme can occur multiple times in a piece, in multiple forms and, for each of those occurrences, will be found in recordings and scores made from different versions of the work. The study of these facets, alongside their complex interactions, is enriched by scholarly collaboration across disciplinary boundaries and requires a suitably flexible, rhizomatic approach to modelling. Building on technical and conceptual standards, we have developed a Linked Data model that supports the annotation of units of musical content at the level of abstraction appropriate to that annotation. Our model was devised in close collaboration between musicologists and digital modelling experts through intensive workshopping, implementation and testing. Participants are invited to explore modelling and annotation through exercises demonstrating music research conducted in Oxford and Vienna. After hands-on ontology design exercises with pen and paper, they are introduced to cutting-edge digital tooling and led through research processes of an ongoing project investigating the Vienna Philharmonic’s New Year’s Concerts.

Please be mindful that each of them has their own deadlines and instructions. CALL FOR POSTERS The 10th DLfM conference (https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk ), held at the Biblioteca del Conservatorio di Milano, welcomes contributions related to any aspect of digital libraries and musicology, including topics related to musical archiving and retrieval, cataloguing and classification, musical databases, special collections, music encodings and representations, computational musicology, or music information retrieval (MIR). This year’s conference will again be held in association with the ISIMIR Congress (https://ismir2023.ismir.net/) and will feature a joint paper session as well as a joint poster session. In bringing these two conferences together we aim to encourage new collaborations and foster larger group discussions surrounding prominent issues in the digital humanities. This year’s DLfM theme, “cultural heritage preservation of music documents,” is aimed to stimulate discussions around the use of MIR technologies in symbolic music and their implications for cultural heritage preservation. Scores and music documents have been digitized by libraries and archives worldwide for preservation and access. Some of these digital libraries' resources are being converted into symbolic files representing the music content of the documents. These symbolic music files, in turn, allow for preservation and access to the music content and more interaction with the music itself—through rendering, playback, search, and computational music analysis. The conference strongly encourages posters that address this year’s theme; however, we welcome all posters addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM. Posters will be permanently placed on the DLfM website, and poster presenters will have the opportunity to present their work in a dedicated poster session. More details will be announced on the DLfM website soon (https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk ). IMPORTANT DATES (AoE ) Poster abstract submission deadline: September 08, 2023 Notification of Acceptance: September 15, 2023 Conference: November 10, 2023 POSTER SUBMISSION An abstract of the proposed poster of no more than 500 words must be submitted by September 08, 2023. Abstracts are to be emailed to: dlfm2022 at easychair.org Details for poster formats will be updated to the DLfM website soon, and instructions will be emailed to authors following the review period. Abstracts will be reviewed and decisions returned by September 15, 2023. CALL FOR SOFTWARE-SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGE SUBMISSIONS What are the barriers to the sustainability, maintainability, and longevity of the systems and services that support digital library use in musicology? What effect do concerns about sustainability have? What would a sustainable digital library infrastructure look like? The Software Sustainability Challenge solicits short position papers, articulating problems, requirements, and solutions on the topic of sustainability of systems and services which support digital library use in musicology. We welcome speculative work, and submissions that explore particular problems, as well as those that suggest solutions. Software Sustainability Challenge submission should be no more than 2-pages long, and use the ACM sigconf template (for more details, see the main conference Call For Papers). They will be peer reviewed, and accepted submissions will be presented at the conference as either part of a panel or lightning talk and/or within a poster session (as determined by the Programme Chair). Challenge submissions will not be included in the main DLfM proceedings, but will be published on the conference website; they will additionally be used (with appropriate credit given) to inform a report into Digital Musicology for the UK Software Sustainability Institute. Authors should use headings from the following list to structure their submissions, addressing implications for sustainability in all relevant sections, and using as many as are applicable for their scenario: · Nature and purpose of the sustainable tool or resource · Audience and users, disciplines and subjects · Position within the research lifecycle · Means of access and accessibility · Current and future requirements, or implementations · Challenges for sustainability · Future directions Challenge contributions must be submitted via the DLfM 2023 EasyChair page by Friday 29 September.

Read on for more details, including how you can help us test it. MuseScore is a popular open-source and free music notation editor, currently on version 4.1. The next official version, 4.2, will include support for MEI Basic import and export. We hope this will provide the community with a much-needed tool for creating and editing MEI notation files. (There is currently no release date for MuseScore 4.2, but it is the next version that they will release). If you don't know, MEI Basic is a new customization for MEI, officially being released with MEI 5. This simplifies MEI to a smaller subset of the full schema, with the intention of providing an easier target for software support in hopes it will spur on tool development. It will only support Common Western Notation, and removes some of the more advanced tools for editorial and analytical work. However, as a subset of MEI, all MEI Basic files are also valid MEI "full" files, meaning current software will support both. This also provides a path for doing basic data entry in a tool like MuseScore, and then further enhancing your encodings, "upgrading" them to more advanced encodings. In advance of the Music Encoding Conference this year, we are inviting the community to help test and provide feedback on this new tool. MEI support is already available in the MuseScore nightly "development" builds, which can be downloaded here: https://musescore.org/en/nightly-builds You will want to download the "latest master" version for your platform (Windows, Mac, or Linux). To work with MEI files you can choose to open some of your existing MEI 4 files (MuseScore will warn you if it doesn't support them) or you can choose existing MuseScore files and save them to MEI. These may be accessed via the normal file "open" and file "export" dialogs. The following features are not currently supported, but we are working towards their support by the time MuseScore 4.2 is released: - lyrics - ornaments - pedal marks - figured bass If you find problems, such as crashes or improper display, please let us know! You can reach us several ways: - The Music Encoding Slack channel - Filing a GitHub issue: https://github.com/rism-digital/MuseScore/issues - E-mail Andrew or Laurent: andrew.hankinson at rism.digital ; laurent.pugin at rism.digital In all cases, providing us with specifics is critical to helping us solve problems. - Details about the version you are using. (You can find this in the MuseScore "About" panel, and it looks something like this: OS: macOS 13.5, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 4.2.0-232210302, revision: github-musescore-musescore-05f017f) - The file you were using that caused a problem. - A screenshot if it provides more details Specifically, we are looking for instances that cause MuseScore to completely crash, since these are the most critical bugs to fix. --- This work is a result of a partnership between the Digital and Cognitive Musicology Lab (DCML) at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), and the Répertoire International des Sources Musicales (RISM) Digital Center in Bern, Switzerland.

This 12-month research fellowship has a fixed term (1/11/2023 – 31/10/2024) and is non-renewable. The deadline to apply is 10th September. ECHOES is a three-year research project funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, headed by Elsa De Luca, Principal Investigator. ECHOES aims to fully understand the history and evolution of the monophonic liturgical chant of Braga (in northern Portugal) from the 11th to the 17th century. This project involves a large component of information technologies related to the development and application of techniques such as OMR and MEI to early music scores. ECHOES presents an example of truly interdisciplinary research where musicologists and music-technology scholars feed into each other’s research while working towards a common goal. ECHOES requires technical assistance from an undergraduate software engineer to implement the algorithm for automatic analysis. The research fellow will assist the research team in carrying out the tasks performed during the term of the project, with particular emphasis on the implementation of the algorithm for automatic musical analysis. The research fellow will work under the supervision of Dr. Martha Thomae (the post-doctoral research fellow in music technology within the same project), the PI and external project collaborators: Prof. Ichiro Fujinaga (McGill University) and Dr. Craig Sapp (Stanford University, CCARH/PHI). Required Qualification: Enrolment in a Bachelor’s Degree Course in Computer Engineering or equivalent. Basic knowledge of music (reading and writing). Fluency in English (written and spoken).

All contributions submitted for inclusion are now available with individual DOIs from the Music Encoding Initiative’s Humanities Commons group at https://hcommons.org/groups/music-encoding-initiative/deposits/. The full volume is available via https://doi.org/10.17613/sn48-8932 We thank you for your patience and hope you agree that the wait was worthwhile, as the Proceedings showcase the impressive variety of scholarship undertaken by our extended community. Video recordings of the excellent keynote presentations by Gimena del Rio Riande and Ichiro Fujinaga will be made available in the near future.

Bohl) Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2023 09:36:00 +0200 Subject: [MEI-L] MEI 5.0 Released Message-ID: Dear MEI community, It is with great pleasure that we are able to announce the release of MEI 5.:tada: This release brings with it the introduction of MEI Basic, a new customization to help drive MEI adoption in mainstream applications. As a smaller subset of MEI, it will help application developers provide support for MEI in their software, while also providing users with a path towards the "full" MEI capabilities should they be needed. With this, we hope to improve application adoption, data sharing between MEI projects, and conversion between MEI and other data formats. Along with MEI Basic, significant improvements have been made to the guidelines, development infrastructure, and encoding consistency, with only limited compatibility changes to the specifications. This release also brings the availability of an auto-generated PDF version of the guidelines. (see the guidelines and release notes for more details). To support projects using MEI, we have also updated the Encoding Tools (https://github.com/music-encoding/encoding-tools) and Sample Encodings (https://github.com/music-encoding/sample-encodings) repositories. Notably, an XSLT is available to help projects upgrade their encodings from MEI 4 to MEI 5 (https://github.com/music-encoding/encoding-tools/blob/main/mei40To50/mei40To50.xsl). We want to thank you, the community, and especially the members of the technical team and ODD meetings, for their continued support and engagement! In total, we had over 40 contributors actively involved in the preparation of this release of MEI. Many of them are early-career researchers, investing significant time and effort into the MEI Framework. Since this work often happens alongside conferences, workshops, and other meetings, there is a danger that their contributions are not recognized properly because of relatively informal, but no less significant, settings. We have included in the Guidelines and in the Release Notes a list of our contributors so that we recognize them by name. Without the joint effort of all those involved, an undertaking like MEI would not be possible. Cheering, Stefan & Benni PS: If you have not yet heard, our community is also working towards MEI 5 Basic support in MuseScore, a popular notation editor! More news on this will follow later this year.

Specific examples of topics traditionally covered at DLfM can be found at https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk. Previous years' DLfM proceedings have been published in the ACM Digital Library through ACM ICPS. Arrangements for the DLfM 2024 are being discussed with ACM and will be confirmed in the 2nd Call for Papers. We are aware of a growing number of institutional and funder requirements for Open Access publication, and recognise that authors will need to comply with any policies which apply to them. IMPORTANT DATES (AoE) * Paper (full paper and short paper) submission deadline: February 12th, 2024 * Notification of paper acceptance: April 8th, 2024 * Poster submission deadline: April 22nd, 2024 * Camera-ready submission deadline (full and short papers): May 13th, 2024 * Conference registration deadline: June 17th, 2024 * Conference: June 23-28 (exact day TBC), Stellenbosch, South Africa Note that at least one author must be registered by the conference registration deadline in order for accepted submissions to be included in the conference programme. SUBMISSIONS Paper submissions * Paper length: We invite full papers (up to 8 pages excluding references) or short papers (up to 4 pages excluding references). * Submissions: work is submitted to DLfM via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dlfm2024). * Format: Submissions must be in English, formatted according to the appropriate ACM template (see template below), in PDF format, and A4 size. Authors will need to follow ACM's instructions for formatting carefully. Assistance will be provided from the proceedings chair. * Templates: Authors must use either the LaTeX template (https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip, use the 'sigconf', 'review', and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), the LaTeX + Overleaf template (https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machinery-acm-sig-proceedings-template/bmvfhcdnxfty, use the 'review' and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), or the MS Word template (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/word_style/interim-template-style/interim-layout.docx). Historically, LaTeX versions have been easier to process into camera-ready versions. Therefore, we encourage all authors to use the LaTeX (or LaTeX + Overleaf) template if possible. * Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, excluding the bibliography (i.e., references can be included on pages over the specified limits). Poster submissions * Submission: The initial poster submission consists of an abstract which outlines both the scholarly content and broad details of the proposed layout in 500 words or fewer. This is to be sent by e-mail to dlfm2024 at easychair.org * Format: Information on printed poster formats will be provided on acceptance of the poster abstract. All accepted posters will also be required to submit a digital copy before the conference date to be shared publicly on the conference web page. Review and Ethics Papers (long and short) will be double blind peer reviewed by at least 3 members of the programme committee. For accepted paper submissions, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by the conference registration deadline. DLfM conforms to the usual conventions for publication ethics. For instance, we endeavour to provide an effective reviewing process that is fair to all submissions, with reviews from experts in the subject area. In turn, we expect authors to ensure anonymity in the original submission as far as practically possible, (for instance by not uploading the submission to public website and/or removing any currently public unpublished preprints while it is under review) and that submissions to DLfM are not under active consideration by another conference or journal.

For this postdoctoral position, we seek a candidate with a background in Computational Musicology, Digital Humanities, or related fields. The candidate should have programming experience working with systems and standards related to the encoding, presentation, and analysis of humanities data, preferably experienced with image and/or music data. The Postdoctoral Researcher recruited for this position will primarily work on the first phase of the project, titled “Reconstructing the repertoire”. Fragmentary and damaged, a large portion of the music once copied the insular manuscripts from c. 1150 to c. 1350 is now incomplete, and most of it was omitted from the current scholarly editions. In addition to recovering the content on these damaged and incomplete fragments using techniques such as MSI, and digitally encoding every notational glyph, features of the manuscript layout, and the orthography of the underlaid texts including their punctuation, another primary activity of this first phase of the project will be to reconstruct the missing portions of the compositions. The primary output of this phase is an innovative ‘born-digital’ scholarly edition that will present interactive reconstructions of these works alongside the enhanced manuscript images for use by scholars and performers, providing an exemplar for future digital music editions, which integrates image, sound, encoding, and context. In addition, the data captured in this phase will inform the analysis of the third phase of the project (Years 4-5) that seeks to understand the relationship of notational systems and musical style to specific regions, repertoires, communities, and individuals. The postdoctoral researcher will have a budget p.a. for research travel related expenses. Salary Postdoctoral Researcher (LEVEL 1) 2023: €42,783 - €45,322 p.a. (3 points) with increment after 12 months service. Closing Date: 23:30hrs (local Irish time) on Sunday, January 14, 2024. The full text of the advertisement may be found on the vacancies page (search for subject 'Music'), and the application deadline is Jan 14, 2024.

I have tried different solutions, and none is, and will ever be perfect. This is of course something we might be able to improve in the future depending on the needs or problems users will report. However, since the object structure in MuseScore and MuseScore file is different, we will never be able to have all IDs preserved, though.
