About MET 2024
Following the great success of its inaugural conference held by the University of Hull in 2010, MET2014, MET2016, MET2018 at IOE London, MET2020 (online) and MET-TMOHE 2022 (online), this 7th biennial, two-day conference (#sempreMET) will be hosted by the University of Hull.
Although the 'musicking' humanity has been reliant on technology from the very beginning of its musical journey, we cannot deny that, nowadays, technology changes, develops, and its role is being redefined at a dramatically greater rate. This sempre conference aims to celebrate technology's challenging role(s) and provide a platform for critical discourse and the presentation of scholarly work in the broader fields of digital technologies in:
- music composition and creation
- music performance
- music production (recording, studio work, archival and/or communication of music)
- diverse musical genres (e.g. popular, classical, world, etc.)
- creativity/ies
- real world praxial contexts (e.g. classroom, studio, etc.)
- assessment of musical development and/or assessment of performance
- computational musicology
- music and Big Data
- the music industry
- special educational contexts/needs
- music, health and wellbeing
- music, LEGO® and/or maker culture
- AI in Music Education
The conference will provide opportunities for colleagues to present and discuss ideas in a friendly and supportive environment, as well as to provide a meeting point for academics, scholars, teachers, and practitioners who are seeking to form connections and synergies with participants from around the world.

Information for presenters and delegates
- Submissions can be between 300 and 1000 words.
- Spoken papers will be 20 minutes (15mins + 5mins Q&A).
- Presenters will be able to use their own laptop computers or tablets given that they supply their own adapters for interfacing with a standard connection to a projector (the standard nowadays is an HDMI connection, but we will also try to accommodate colleagues with older D-sub15 VGA interfaces).
- Presenters will be able to use sound/audio for their presentations; there is no need to bring audio cables, as long as your computer/device has a standard 1/8in (3.5mm) stereo minijack socket (or you are using an HDMI connection, where both digital audio and video are transferred in tandem).
- If you have specialist requirements, please contact the conference Chair as soon as possible. We will try to support you in identifying a solution and tend to your needs.
- Presenters that wish to use the conference venue computer should try to email their presentations to the conference Chair the soonest possible. Please do not leave this for the very last moment.
- Presenters do not need to bring their own computer/device for their presentation. The venue will have installed computer(s) connected to the powerpoint projectors. If you prefer to use the installed machine on the day, please ensure that you bring your presentation files in a standard format (PDF, PPT, Open Presentation). Also, please ensure that you are not using specialist fonts (unless your presentation is inside a compiled PDF). Finally, please ensure that whatever files you link to from inside your presentation are accessible on a different computer (either 'package' your presentation, or point to files/assets online).
- The venue does provide high speed internet for those that would prefer to use a Prezi show (or google show, etc) but please do not rely on internet connectivity and ensure that you have your files on a disk or usb flashdrive.
- We will aim to broadcast and record all presentations (audio/video) for our online participants, please inform the registration desk upon arrival if you have particular reasons to object this.
- Presenters will be kindly asked to follow the session chairs' guidelines.
