Hi all,
Please find details below of our Digital Musicology workshop, running
again at the Digital Humanities at Oxford Summer School.
I'd be grateful if you could forward to colleagues who might find it of
interest, particularly those in music departments and institutions.
And thank you to those FAST team members contributing to the workshop!
cheers,
Kevin.

SUMMER SCHOOL WORKSHOP: INVITATION TO REGISTER
Digital Musicology: Applied computational and informatics methods for
enhancing musicology
Digital Humanities at Oxford Summer School, Keble College, 22-26 July 2019
<http://www.dhoxss.net/digital-musicology>
Dates: 22-26 July
Registration: <http://www.dhoxss.net/register>
A wealth of music and music-related information is now available
digitally, offering tantalizing possibilities for digital
musicologies. 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 ‘data deluge’.
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
delivered by expert practitioners from these fields and presented in
the context of their collaborations with musicologists, and by
musicologists relating their experiences of these multidisciplinary
investigations.
The workshop comprises a series of lectures and hands-on sessions,
supplemented with reports from musicology research
exemplars. Theoretical lectures are paired with practical sessions in
which attendees are guided through their own exploration of the topics
and tools covered. Laptops will be loaned to attendees with the
appropriate specialised software installed and preconfigured.
Participants also attend afternoon lectures and masterclasses with
participants from other workshops, these sessions cover a broad range of
digital humanities topics.
There will also be optional evening events (some at additional cost),
including a walking tour of Oxford, an evening drinks and poster session
at the Weston Library and the TORCH lecture. Participants will be
invited to submit posters for the welcome reception 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.
