{"title":"Exploring Cultural Diversity in Experimental Sound","authors":"Amit Dinesh Patel","doi":"10.25370/array.v20213269","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.25370/array.v20213269","url":null,"abstract":"The genres of computer music, noise, sound art, electroacoustic music, soundscape and improvisation – termed for the remainder of this article as ‘experimental sound’ are overwhelmingly dominated by affluent, White male practitioners. The Black Lives Matter movement has thrown into sharp relief many examples of the injustices that Black people face as a result of institutionalWhiteness, and this should catalyze serious investigation and honest critical reflection in our own field. Recent work in diversifying experimental sound practices has focussed on gender and increasing the representation of women (Born & Devine 2015, Lane 2016, and Goh & Thompson 2021). While this work is absolutely vital, there is a need to address other forms of exclusion, such as racial exclusion. This paper serves as an overview of an 18 Month UK Arts and Humanities Research Council funded research project “Exploring Cultural Diversity in Experimental Sound” (ECDES)1, beginning in September 2021 (Patel et al 2021). Our research will build an understanding of the experiences of experimental sound composers from Black and South Asian backgrounds, building awareness of the existing cultural diversity in electroacoustic music and sound arts, while also promoting strategies to realize change to support and nurture practitioners from across Britain’s diverse cultures.","PeriodicalId":223537,"journal":{"name":"array. the journal of the ICMA","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130512171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Boutard","doi":"10.25370/array.v20202629","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.25370/array.v20202629","url":null,"abstract":"I have recently argued (Boutard 201 9) that preservation of digital technology in mixed music should build upon the work done for the past ten years in digital preservation in relation to cultural heritage institutions, namely l ibraries, archives and museums (LAMs). From this premise, I have discussed several hypothetical directions based on a broad and widely discussed distinction between three levels of preservation: bit-level preservation; logical-level preservation; and conceptual-level preservation. The goal of such a paper was to emphasize the similarities in the management of digital objects among various cultural heritage institutions at each one of these levels, whether these institutions manage complex objects (e.g. museums), research data (e.g. academic l ibraries), or more generic digital artefacts (e.g. archives). The promotion of Findabil ity, Accessibil ity, Interoperabil ity, and Reusability (FAIR) as wel l as Transparency, Responsibil ity, User focus, Sustainability and Technology (TRUST) is now a fairly widespread theme in research data management and digital archiving (Wilkinson et al. 201 6; Lin et al. 2020). These notions provide an overarching frame for best practices in each domain. Discussing these notions may entail shifting the discussion from similarities to differences between the preservation ofmixed music and the preservation of digital col lections, archives and new media art pieces. In this paper, I would l ike to point at these differences and to continue the discussion about the conceptual level of preservation in relation to documentation methods.","PeriodicalId":223537,"journal":{"name":"array. the journal of the ICMA","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125943565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
