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) was 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 aimed 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 provided opportunities for colleagues to present and discuss ideas in a friendly and supportive environment, as well as to act as a meeting point for academics, scholars, teachers, and practitioners who are seeking to form connections and synergies with participants from around the world.
