<div class="yiv2106705415MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Cambria;">We are delighted to
announce the call for papers for the 2012 annual conference of IASPM-ANZ. This
year, the conference will be organized by Dr Michelle Phillipov, and held at the
University of Tasmania. We are pleased to stage our annual event in Hobart in
keeping with the rotating conference schedule of Australia and New Zealand
locations. </span></div>
<div class="yiv2106705415MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36.0pt;"><span style="font-family:Cambria;">Abstracts
for paper presentations are now invited from 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 stated conference
theme. Papers with a theoretical orientation are particularly encouraged, as
are submissions from postgraduate students.</span></div>

<div class="yiv2106705415MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Cambria;">The concept of ‘<i style="">flow’</i> is essential for understanding the fluidity, flux and
diffusion of contemporary media and culture. <i style="">Flow</i> reveals the complexities of contemporary cultural production,
consumption and participation. It also illuminates the ways in which ideas,
information, culture and technology are exchanged and imbued with meaning and
power. </span></div>
<div class="yiv2106705415MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36.0pt;"><span style="font-family:Cambria;">The concept of <i style="">flow</i> has been influential in the work of
Appadurai (1990) and Castells (1996), and in more recent writing on media and
convergence cultures. Questions of <i style="">musical</i>
flow, however, remain an under-explored area. This conference invites papers
that consider the role of music in the facilitation and disruption of media and
cultural <i style="">flow</i>. In doing so, it considers
music as something that moves between, and within, different spaces, places,
texts, communities and technologies.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;"> </span><span style="font-family:Cambria;"></span></div>
