On April 13-14, the SNT (Sound, Narrative, Technology) initiative together with the Crocus research network at Lund University arrange a seminar at Inter Arts Center (IAC) on orality, writing and compositional practices in relation to text. The seminar explores how understanding from an artistic practice could inform method development in the arts and artistic research, as well as in other research fields. What learning outcomes are there from working with music and text? What are the different strategies in writing for musical composition?

Presenters: Robert Willim, Kent Olofsson, Tale Næss, Jörgen Dahlqvist, Tanja Hylling Diers, Vanja Hamidi Isacson, Magnus Bunnskog, Sima Wolgast, Elisabeth Hjorth, Christine Owman

SNM (Sound, Narrative, Technology) is a network researching audio performance, dramatic writing, musical composition and hörspiel. Researchers, artists and experts within these disciplines meet to develop and deepen the fields that emerge at the intersection, and where the questions and problems take their starting point in narrative, artistic methods and content.

CROCUS is an interdisciplinary network interested in the cultural and creative industries. The network is based at Lund University and serves as a platform for education and research in the fields of culture and creativity.
