Call for Papers:

Crosstown Traffic: Popular Music Theory and Practice

University of Huddersfield, UK

3rd-5th September 2018

 

This is a call for papers for a joint conference arranged by four organisations:

 

Hosted by the University of Huddersfield, this event will combine the IASPM UK&I Biennial Conference, with the 13th Art of Record Production Conference (ARP), a conference of ISMMS, and feature the additional participation of Dancecult. The theme of the conference is Crosstown Traffic: Popular Music Studies Theory and Practice.

 

A recurrent theme within popular music studies has been discussion of how the field can integrate different disciplines and professions, for example exploring both music and its context; involving both practitioners and researchers; and encouraging interdisciplinary and collaborative work. Many different issues make such approaches challenging, and various different popular music focused subject organisations have developed somewhat independently of one another. This conference will bring four such groups together, to exchange knowledge, collaborate, and to encourage crosstalk.

 

Proposals for presentations, discussion panels and posters are invited that are relevant to recent developments in any of the subject organisations, especially those that explore theory and/or practice. Applications are particularly welcomed that cut across the interests of those involved, and that explore:
