The Sound and Music SIG is once again collaborating with our friends in the Radio, Audio Media, and Podcasting SIG to host a mixer during the 2025 conference, on Thursday, April 3rd. Check your SIG update email for location. Here's a picture of a "mixer" for the algorithm:

Good morning, SCMS 2025! Today our SIG has two sponsored panels: A04: Alternative Histories of Sound Art and Sound in the Museum D12: Noncommercial Radio Broadcasting in the United States and Canada Also reminder tonight is our mixer with RAMP Sig (see email for details).

Good morning! Two more sponsored panels today: L6, "Rewinding Tape Across Media: Archives of Ambivalence (A RoundTaple)," dedicated as a tribute to Jonathan Sterne, a space for SCMS members to reflect on what he has meant to them and to our field. M15: TikTok Musicalities

don't forget to support your fellow SIG members at the book fair!

Good morning SCMSers! While we don't have officially sponsored panels today we have noted these two as of potential interest: O08: Sound, Affect, and the Cinema Q21: Hidden Conduits of Control in the Media Industries.

The SIG has put together a brief survey to assess interest in particular initiatives built upon some conversations held over the past year, including from our annual meeting. It should take no more than 10 minutes of your time and will run through May 15: forms.gle/hbjUWGwzwejxZe…
