Australasian Jazz and Improvisation Research Network Conference (AJIRN )
2022-05-06 00:00 - 2022-05-09 00:00 UTC
The 2022 AJIRN conference theme Space is the place” invites participants to think about where improvisation occurs, where it might occur, how it interacts with its spaces and places, the movements and migratory patterns of improvising artists, what role locality in any of its forms plays in improvisation studies, and more. Many forces today, not least the increasing awareness that international travel on a large scale is ecologically unsustainable?conspire to drive us to rethink “the local” as the primary place of our collaborative practices. Might this lead to a culture shift in which local agency replaces the traditional hegemonic centersof creative practice? Conversely, the COVID-19 pandemic has stimulated many novel modes of creative collaboration via technologically-afforded “virtual” spaces. So while “the local” is being reclaimed as the foundationalcollaborative locus, it is simultaneously taking on new registers, since even disparate spaces and places can be conjoined to form new virtual localities. Here Sun Ra’s insistence that “space is the place” takes on dynamic new valences, from local place to cyberspace. We welcome proposalsfor individual papers, performances, panel discussions, and hybrid formats that engage this theme. Assuming travel is possible in 2022, we are planning for a hybrid conference with robust on-the-ground activities but also opportunities for remote participation.

Workshop :: Music Theory for Producers with Lisa Kacos
2022-04-30 12:00 - 15:00 (America/Chicago)
Join core faculty member Lisa Kacos in a three hour workshop to learn how to communicate musical fundamentals when producing music.

In the recording studio, it can be a challenge to know how to describe your musical vision without a basic understanding of music theory. Omni core faculty member Lisa Kacos will lead a three hour workshop designed to help you learn how to clearly communicate music theory fundamentals while recording yourself or others.
In the first half of the workshop, class participants will explore the role of a music producer and the common conversations taking place within the studio. Students will then delve into the concepts of rhythm, melody, and harmony and how they work together to create different genres of music.
The second half of the workshop will include a collaborative practice where participants will produce real songs using their new-found music theory skills.
We’ll wrap up the workshop with a very important discussion of how to utilize DistroKid to maximize your producing credit and make sure that the music you’re creating is heard!(Plus, all attendees will receive 30% off your first year of membership.)
Omni Online classes are open to all genders. This workshop is appropriate for those with some basic experience recording music and sound, but adventurous beginners are welcome. Class attendance is limited to allow for participation.
