INVITATION TO COMPLETE ONLINE SURVEY
With apologies for cross posting.
Dear Colleagues,
Musicology is changing. Advances in technology are opening up new
areas of musical practice to potential scrutiny such as analysis of
performance through recorded music. Application of software to
analytical tasks dealing with music is making possible a kind of
objectivity which hasn't been possible in previous music
scholarship. Current theoretical advances are even formalising the
notion of musical and musicological practice and may potentially
complement human agents in future models of practice. The social Web
and scientific methods are bringing about changes in scholarly
practice and publication with collaborative research becoming more
commonplace in humanities disciplines.
How will these changes effect your own practice?
Purcell Plus is an AHRC/EPSRC/JISC funded project under the e-Science
in the Arts and Humanities Initiative which is attempting to
investigate the impact of technology on music. Part of the project
involves eliciting opinions from the community of musical practice and
scholarship on uses of technology. Please take a moment to answer our
survey and make your opinion on technology for music known.
