[ANPPOM-Lista] Sonic Signatures Symposium

[Carlos Palombini]

Sonic Signatures Symposium for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers
9th – 11th of April 2014. Registration is FREE (subject to acceptance of
application).

Deadline 1st November 2013.

The Association for the Study of the Art of Record Production (ASARP) in
collaboration with the European Sound Studies Association (ESSA) is pleased
to announce the launch of its annual symposium series, the first of which
explores Sonic Signatures.  This is a unique opportunity to work with top
international academics and recording industry professionals to develop the
leading edge of scholarship in this crucial aspect of the analysis of
recorded popular music. Over three intensive days you will workshop your
own research topic in the context of some of the latest analytical
approaches while at the same time being grounded in the practicalities of
current creative practice.

Hosted by Aalborg University, Denmark, the symposium deals with the debates
surrounding the sonic signatures of recorded music artefacts. These debates
are intimately bound up with technology and therefore with artifice,
construction, representation, and mediation which themselves deal with
subjects such as the (re)creation of (artificial/ impossible) spaces, the
relocation of spaces, digital assemblage, artificial persona, and genre and
style. They are, therefore, a representation of historical, cultural,
political, national and rhetorical milieux through the artifice and
mediation of technology. Above all, though, the sonic signature of a
recorded music artefact bears the artistic imprint of the producer and the
imprint of the performer's engagement with the technology.

We are also delighted to announce Richard James Burgess Ph.D. who has
produced many gold, platinum, and multi-platinum albums as our industry
keynote speaker.

Richard has been a major label recording artist and composer with hit
records in his own right; was a studio musician of note, and has worked
internationally for most major labels as a producer, engineer, re-mixer and
manager of artists and producers. He is known for his pioneering work with
synthesizers, computers, and sampling and as an inventor of the Simmons
SDSV drum synthesizer. He currently works at Smithsonian Folkways
Recordings in Washington DC, where he was co-producer, co-executive
producer and project director for Jazz: The Smithsonian Anthology, a seven
year project chronicling more than a century of jazz and authored The Art
of Music Production: The Theory and Practice, 4th edition (Oxford
University Press).

Other confirmed speakers and panel guests are:

•       Anne Danielsen

•       Karsten Dahlgaard

•       Katia Isakoff

•       Martin Knakkergaard

•       Tore Simonsen
