28th CHIME Conference Digital Futures for Chinese Music

4 – 8 July 2025

Department of Music, University College Cork, Sunday’s Well Road, Cork, Ireland

 

In this conference we focus on the various ways new media (digital media especially) provide spaces for preserving, creating, playing, sharing, teaching, or discussing music, and the ways these spaces are impacting what musicians, culture bearers, and others do in the musical part of their lives. Participants will share their research that resonate with this theme. Also, presentations of other new research in the broad area of Chinese music studies are included.


New digital media provide for “repackaging” of traditions, access to distant events, gestures of sharing and commemoration, and spaces (and toolkits) for new creation, online learning, critical commentary, or playful remixing. We might study these situations in several ways:


•    as platforms and tools for new kinds of musical creation, curation, and participation
•    as spaces for new formats of presentation, repatriation, and commemoration
•    as settings where performance facets like musical expression, liveness, or authenticity are open to striking reformulations
•    as a source of musical materials, influences, threats, or inspirations
•    as contexts that raise expanded economic and reputational possibilities as well as ethical or legal concerns

 

Keynote speech: State, Sound, and the Algorithm: Shaping Chinese Identity and Nationalism Through Digital Musicking in the AI Era / Yu Hui (funded by ERC-ECura project)
