[csaa-forum] Dancecult-l : a new mailing list for the Electronic Dance Music Culture Research Network

[Graham St John]

You are invited to join a new mailing discussion list for research on 
electronic dance music culture (EDMC): Dancecult-l
http://listcultures.org/mailman/listinfo/dancecult-l_listcultures.org

There are now a wide range of researchers involved in analyses of the 
social, cultural, political, religious, historical, health and 
musicological dimensions of EDMC (from proto-disco through to post-rave 
forms). This escalation in research over the past ten years or more (under 
various rubrics including 'Club Culture', 'Rave Studies', 'Techno', 
'Electronica' and 'Dance Culture') is symptomatic of both an increasingly 
popular dance music and digital arts phenomenon, and an emerging 
interdisciplinary field of study.

While those who are engaged in EDMC research generate dialogue and exchange 
information in small circles, researchers would benefit substantially from 
larger network building and collaboration generating frameworks. Such a 
network will assist existing and emerging researchers and aid the formation 
of a recognizable area of study drawing upon a wealth of knowledge from 
researchers working in various disciplines, in many different global 
locations, employing diverse methodologies.
