THEME AND TOPICS:
The theme of MuSA 2018 is At the Interface Between Practice and Theory: Revisiting the Artistic Research Debate. The last decade has witnessed the establishment of artistic research in music and sonic arts as an original approach that brings together theory and practice. While much has been written about the integral role of artistic practice in this kind of research, much remains to be learned from exploring the multiple ways in which theory and practice can be brought to bear on each other. MuSA2018 thus aims explore the interface between theory and practice in the context of artistic research. We invite submissions on the following, and other relevant topics, in relation to the theory-practice interface in the context of artistic research:
Other topics that are in line with the Conference’s broad aim of promoting interdisciplinary research within and across Music and Sonic Art will also be considered.
As in previous MuSA conferences MuSA 2018 will continue to include the popular, one-day event devoted to ‘Re-thinking the Musical Instrument’, focusing on the origination, making and playing of musical instruments.
Some of the topics that will be explored during this one-day event include:
We also invite proposals on any research area related to the nature and use of western acoustical instruments, traditional ethnic instruments and digital/virtual instruments.
