[Commlist] Call for Participants: Music and Online Cultures Research Network Summer Symposium

Music and Online Cultures Research Network

Summer Symposium, June 28th2023

University of Salford


Call for Participants


The Music and Online Cultures Research Network (MOCReN) invites Early 
Career Researchers and Postgraduate Research students working across 
music, media and cultural studies, and related disciplines to 
participate in our inaugural in-person meeting at the University of Salford.


Alongside structured sessions mapping the terrain of an emerging 
scholarly field, including everything from streaming services to 
web-based communities and the challenges and opportunities presented by 
AI, this one-day symposium will provide an opportunity to establish 
links between new-generation researchers, with the aim of sharing 
expertise and fostering future collaborations.


The day will feature a keynote from Dr Holly Rogers (Goldsmiths) and a 
methods workshop led by Jenessa Williams (Leeds) and Dr Edward Katrak 
Spencer (Oxford/Manchester), as well as a roundtable discussion on the 
ethics and objectives of researching music and online cultures. No prior 
knowledge or expertise is necessary, only an active research interest in 
how music is mediated, shared and consumed online.


Attendance is free, and lunch and refreshments will be provided on site 
at the University of Salford’s Peel Park campus. Proceedings will begin 
at 10am and close by 5.30pm, followed by informal drinks and dinner in town.
