What constitutes music?

Organisers

• Dr Deborah Lee (Information Studies) 
• Dr Nicolas Gold (Computer Science) 
• Prof. Jane Gilbert (SELCS-CMII)

This event will be an interactive workshop for UCL colleagues from all disciplines and backgrounds to talk informally about how they approach music in their research. We hope to get a sense of the diversity of existing approaches among colleagues, and to begin building interdisciplinary connections.

A keynote talk from Prof. Sarah Hibberd (University of Bristol) will begin the day, followed by a mixture of small-group and plenary discussions. Lunch will be served.
