Appel de conférences pour le colloque « Directions and Aesthetics of the Digital Era », University College Dublin, 11-12 juin 2026.

« The seventeenth meeting of the ‘Music and Media’ study group of the International Musicological Society will take place in-person on June 11-12 2026 in the School of Music at University College Dublin. The theme of this year’s conference is “Directions and Aesthetics of the Digital Era” and will feature a keynote address hosted at the Irish Film Institute.

Since 2000 and the increasing dominance of digital film, music for screen media has experienced substantial changes. With the waning of the “classical” scoring style, the popularisation of composition on Digital Audio Workstations, the arrival of Dolby Atmos, the increasing prioritisation of sound over score, and the rise of streaming services, shifts in music and sound
have distinguished digital-era aesthetics from those of the twentieth century. This conference invites proposals that consider these aesthetics, the directions of arising trends, or precursors foreshadowing contemporary practices. »
