📣 new paper 📣 Parallel or variant? 🇩🇪 🇦🇹🇨🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇺🇸 As an Englishman teaching in Germany I was amazed at just how different the German– and English– speaking music theory lexicons (still) are in our ostensibly globalised age. 🇩🇪 🇦🇹🇨🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇺🇸 Curious?

🚨 Unimportant Terminology Question no.265326 🚨 Membership on here is soaring! Great time to shore up the terminology. (Or not!) If on bird 🐦 themed platforms posts were called “tweets” 🐥, does what are they here 🦋? … “bolts ⚡️from the blue”?

How can screenshots trouble our understanding of AI? To explore this we’re launching a call for screenshots. Further details can be found at: troubling-ai.glitch.me

The Computational Humanities Research Group at KCL continues research seminars this term. You can find events here: www.kcl.ac.uk/events/serie... - however, one that's not yet on the calendar is a talk by @heuser.bsky.social - click below to register. #digitalhumanities #intellectualhistory

Does anyone else see “WFH”, think it’s “WTF” and have to do a double take? 😳 Looks like everyone posting job advertisements drops character. Or maybe 🤔 it’s just honest. 3 days sensible work and 2 days of WTF 🤷‍♀️

Hey 👋 music people. Whose up for filling this place with micro musical analyses?🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ What rules? Maybe 🤔 half-baked ideas💡only (ie prompt for discussion rather than grandstanding). How to connect 🤔? Maybe #micromusicalmusing ? Open to ideas!

All musical 🎵🎻🎤 data All music-adjacent data 📹🕹️ All multimodal connections 🤝 We have a paper drafted on this and would welcome feedback from across musicology and music computing (broadly defined!). Please DM or email (@ KCL). Thanks! Here’s to awesome 😎 novel connections to expand our field.

Note to self: No T! ☕️ … No spice! 🌶️🥵 … No ballroom dancing! 💃🕺 It’s Tim Walz (sic, not Waltz)

📞 call for papers 📢 TISMIR (🎵🧪journal) is doing a special edition on multimodal MIR. Please interpret this broadly, and consider a submission. Official announcement here account.transactions.ismir.net/index.php/up... (Full Disclosure: I’m co-guest editing and also now on the TISMIR board)

An opinion. 1. There are many ways to give a good talk (in 🎵🧪, or any field). 2. “written out in advance“ has always been popular but I’ve never seen it really work. 3. “written out in advance and delivered as a conversion” is becoming more common but is clearly even worse. Any counters?

Finally tried 🧪🎵 lecturing with no slides. Still lots of resources etc., simply doing contact time without slides. Lots of discussion and real time adaptation on the - white board e.g., shapes, ideas - device e.g., code Recommended for interactivity in sessions (obv. depending on the topic etc).

Greetings from ISMIR 2023 (a 🎵🧪 conference) where the “social media” app of choice now seems to be … LinkedIn …

Wonderful to be here and among the 🎵🧪 community. … though “Blue Sky” is a bit “on the nose” for an app still in its early days, and still a bit light on content. So here’s to filling it up & here’s a 4’ video intro to my new paper: “Chromatic chords in theory and practice”. youtu.be/MKtW3d00a5g
