7th International Scientific Meeting for the Study of Sound and Musical Instruments
Congresso de Organologia 2018 Organological Congress In ANIMUSIC's international conferences, bridging in such a special way the spheres of Science and Art, participation from all subject areas is very welcome, this being an open community which is interested in research that deals, in any way, with sound and musical instruments. We look for relevant work and creative output, for practical demonstrations and performance, for workshops and exhibitions, proposing a space and time for positive exchange and discussions. Following the European Year 2018, and inspired by the wonderful coast of Portugal near our host, the Museum Jose Malhoa, located in Caldas da Rainha, the general theme of this congress appeals to considerations on the differences and the similarities of the various “coasts”, regions, creeds, customs, human and natural creations…, considering the links and transversality from and of knowledge and praxis: «Beyond the broad coast horizon - diversity and transversality in cultural heritage». Besides economical-social-historical-heritage issues which are imbued in our society, cultural and scientific initiatives of this kind reaffirm the premise of knowledge acquisition and positive discussion amidst fellows, deepening what one knows and opening other doors. Our objective in ANIMUSIC is to bring together collaborative keen people, to expand our tribute to art and science, preparing with care such unique occasions without any direct return for us except the sharing itself of such special events. This meeting is only possible thanks to the contribution of everyone, from different areas of study and Art. If you know of interesting research about instruments or sound studies, from your friends and colleagues, if you know of fantastic artists that perform for the sake of pure love for the Art knowing those listening are the best supporters, who can bring novelty, more knowledge, variety about the instruments and their relation to the creative sound, please spread the information about this event. It's there, usually in Portugal, for you and them. The closing date for paper proposals is the 30th of April - for other proposals it's preferable to propose until the 31st of May.
