(Deadline: December 15, 2017)
The first three TENOR conferences (2015 Paris, 2016 Cambridge, 2017 A Coruña) have established the growing relevance of emergent technologies of notation and representation for a wide range of musical practices: composers, performers, theoreticians, performance researchers, historians, ethnomusicologists, archivists etc. The fourth TENOR conference in Montréal will continue to offer a lively forum for current research into situative scores, softwares, hardware, performance practices and theories of notation and representation in musicking, but we also intend to expand the scope of the conference by calling for papers on
- critical, aesthetic and sociological examinations of the interactions between new notation technologies and performance
- notation technologies for non-eurological and/or non-art music (incl. never-before-notated music)
- notation/representation technologies for time-based arts beyond music (dance, performance art, theatre, circus arts, animation, film etc.)
- notations for space, gesture, movement etc.
- non-visual notation systems (tactile, aural, olfactory, etc.)
- digital games as notation (music as a game)
- digital games as notation (music as a game)
