We are pleased to announce this call for papers for the 2013 IAPSM-ANZ
conference, which will be held at the Queensland Conservatorium, Griffith
University, in conjunction with the International Music Council’s 5th World
Forum for Music (21-24 November). The theme of the IMC World Forum is
‘Sustaining Music, Engaging Communities’ with a strong emphasis on the
interplay between music, musicians and their various environments of
activity (natural, built, social and cultural, etc). Drawing on this, the
theme of the 2013 IASPM-ANZ conference, *Popular Music Communities, Places
and Ecologies *seeks to foster scholarly engagement with the various ways
in which music, people and place are connected. While notions of of
‘community’ and ‘place’ are well-established constructs in popular music
studies, we introduce here the notion of ‘ecology’ as a further
consideration in the relationship between popular music and place. This
term may be understood literally, in reference to the natural or physical
environment, or figuratively, as a metaphor for the numerous other possible
environments of popular music production and consumption.



Abstracts for paper presentations on any aspect of this theme are invited
from all researchers with an interest in popular music, regardless of
disciplinary orientation. All papers detailing new and established research
in the field will be considered, though preference may be given to papers
that demonstrate clear engagement with the theme. Papers with a theoretical
orientation are particularly encouraged, as are submissions from
postgraduate students. Panel submissions of up the three papers are also
welcome. Please submit your proposal as a Word doc, in plain text, with the
following information (in this order):



   - Name of author(s) (exactly as you would like it to appear in the
   program)
   -  Institution or affiliation
   -  Contact phone number, including international codes
   - Email
   - Consideration for 2012 IASPM-ANZ postgraduate prize?* (Yes/No)
   - Title of paper
   - 3 keywords for your paper (for programming purposes)
   - Abstract (300 words maximum)

*The IAPSM-ANZ postgraduate prize of AUD$250 is awarded to the best
postgraduate presenter at the conference, as determined by a panel of
established IAPSM-ANZ members. Only current postgraduate students are
eligible. Past winners may not apply.

 Information on registration, accommodation and additional activities will
be posted on the IASPM-ANZ website following the abstract review process.
All presenters are required to be financial members of IASPM. Membership
