This conference - Home, Work and Music - explores issues and debates 
centred around music in domestic spaces. It will showcase current 
research on the empirical, methodological and theoretical implications 
of centring the domestic in music research.

Domestic spaces are regularly overlooked in scholarly, sectoral and 
policy discourses, but their significance as entangled sites of music 
creation and performance, and the issues raised by their visibility are 
striking and urgent. From basements to bedrooms, domestic settings are 
key nodal points where personal lives, global digital infrastructures 
and creative networks meet. Scrutiny of the lived realities of these 
digitally porous sites affords critical insights into technological 
mediations of musicians’ creative labour in the home.

The conference illuminates practices of music production as bound to 
lived domestic sites against a backdrop of wholesale changes to music 
associated with digitalisation, entrepreneurialism and 
self-marketisation. Presenters investigate the home as the location for 
individual and collective music production at a moment when the 
boundaries of the public and private are eroding and the pressures on 
musicians as creative workers are intensifying as a result of 
longer-term patterns of participation, exclusion and “flexibilisation”. *
