MUSIC AND THE MOVING IMAGE VIII May 31, June 1, June 2, 2013:
The annual conference, Music and the Moving Image, encourages submissions from scholars and practitioners that explore the relationship between music, sound, and the entire universe of moving images (film, TV, video games, mobile media, and interactive performances) through paper presentations.
