"Organised Sound" call for submissions "Networked
Electroacoustic Music"
Organised Sound: An International
Journal of Music and Technology
Call for submissions
Volume 17, Number 1
Issue thematic title: Networked Electroacoustic Music
Date of Publication: April 2012
Publishers: Cambridge University Press
Issue co-ordinators: Ian Whalley
(musik@waikato.ac.nz), Ken Fields (kfields@ucalgary.ca)
Organised Sound has regularly covered networked music in
the past, including a themed issue (vol. 10/3, 2005). The
proliferation of Internet2 has resulted in a sustained practice
of sonic and multimedia experimentation over high-speed research
networks. This current themed issue aims to explore and document
current work, practices and innovation in this new musical
space. Are there new issues in aesthetics to be addressed in
electroacoustic music as mediated by networks? What continuing
practices and roles are being transformed and/or reinterpreted
as a consequence? What are the most significant new outcomes or
processes? What are the current research questions that need to
be explored? As the diffusion of multichannel audio set an
agenda for a generation of electroacoustic music, will
geo-diffusion be a new benchmark?
Topics for investigation might include, but are not restricted
to:
· Conceptual
frameworks for current and continuing research
· Perceptual/cognitive
framing of the tele-musical event
· Aesthetics/philosophy
of sonic interconnection
· Beyond
spatialisation: geo-diffusion
· New
tools and techniques being used and explored
· Production
and social-organisational challenges created by distributed
work
· Hybrid
art-forms that may have emerged
· Challenges
in combining local and remote acoustics
· Human
and Network Interaction (HNI)
· Distributed
/ remote participation (composition, performance, reception)
· Network
acoustics: sonifying the network
· Sonic
outcomes of machine, Internet2, and human interaction
· Artistic
statements and innovative outcomes
The OS issue Networked
Electroacoustic Music will also be encouraged through a
networked symposium in January 2011. For updates subscribe to:
