*STATEMENT:*
We are pleased to announce the 3rd Inter-Asia Popular Music Studies (IAPMS)
Conference, which will take place on July 13-15, 2012 in Taipei, in
collaboration with the Department of Psychology at Fu Jen Catholic
University and the Graduate Institute of Mass Communication at National
Taiwan Normal University. Following the first conference in Osaka in 2008
and the second conference in Hong Kong in 2010, we move our next meeting to
Taipei--hub of vibrant indie music scenes and Mandarin pop music industries.
The studies on Asian popular music are still in its embryonic stage. There
is neither a university program in Asia devoted to popular music studies
nor a journal dedicated to the exploration of Asian popular music. What we
have now is an online-based, transnational research portal that began in
2007, the Inter-Asia Popular Music Studies Group, plus a rapidly expanding
research network that at the moment includes 80 scholars not only in Asia
but also in Europe, America and Oceania. The organization is young and
enthusiastic about the rising academic interest in Asian popular music both
inside and outside Asia. There is a growing feeling that Asian popular
music has not received sufficient attention from international popular
music studies and that the existing paradigms of popular music
studies may not be adequate in understanding the culture, economies, and
histories of Asian popular music. The IAPMS biennial conference is meant to
foster scholarly conversations surrounding the emerging field of Inter-Asia
popular music studies.
*CONFERENCE THEME**:*
*WAYS OF LISTENING: **How do we listen to pop music in/from Asia, and how
can we talk about it?***
Pop music lovers, makers, and critics take the activity of listening to
music for granted. Yet it is not always easy to express our/my listening
experiences to others. It is even more challenging to elaborate the social
and cultural implications of the differing responses.
Can the question, "how do we listen to pop music" prompt interest in the
"ways of listening"?
For example, who is listening to Asian pop music? What constitutes pop
music listening? Where does music-listening take place? What activities and
connections accompany the act of listening? How is everyday life organized
through music listening? What personal, social, affective, and
technological experiments have seeped through pop music listening? How do
the recording and consumer's technologies affect the ways of listening in
contemporary and historical Asian contexts? Do musicians and critics listen
to music and do they do music differently from "ordinary" music fans? Can
music listening be creative practices? How are the ways of listening linked
to various moments and results of production? How have listening and
interpretive practices transformed Asian pop music as social distinction,
identity markers, professional knowledge, genres, businesses, and markets?
We invite paper proposals that will investigate, elaborate, contextualize,
and historicize the experiences of listening to (Asian) pop music globally
and/or in Asia. We welcome papers that address moments that open up to
expression and conversation about how people engage pop music. Since this
could be a task beyond the measure of words, we invite you to turn the
thematic question around with an attitude, such as, "Hey! This is how
"we/I/they" action Asian pop music!"
We welcome both individual paper and panel proposals under the umbrella
theme. In addition, we welcome individual and panel proposals for the
following panel themes geared toward publication projects:
-Current issues in Asian popular music studies
-Research methodologies for the studies of Asian popular music
-Pop music, cultural variability and globalization
M.A. and Ph.D. students: IAPMS*2012*Taipei features a postgraduate day!
