Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

CONTENTS
The study of the relationship between image and sound has a long history dating back to the early years of the musicological discipline and an exceptionally broad field of subject matter: be it the imaging of music-making scenes on a wide variety of objects, live scenery or dance to music, notation as an image of the musical, or, especially more recently, digital methods for combined image and sound analysis and reception research - the borderland of disciplines is becoming ever wider and more difficult to map.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this class is to provide an overview of the research field of music iconography and music iconology. Emphasis will be placed on a broad approach in terms of content and history, providing a variety of methods that can be applied to research in this disciplinary borderland.
METHOD
The course alternates between sequences of group work, collaborative discussions, and presentations by teacher and learners. Since the course is held in blocks at the beginning, independent preparatory work must be done between the course dates (reading, short texts/blog posts, independent research on given topics).
