This group is devoted to a discussion of topics related to music encoding, and is an extension of the Music Encoding Initiative channels on MEI-L and website, https://music-encoding.org/.

The Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) is a community-driven effort to define a system for encoding musical documents in a machine-readable structure. MEI brings together specialists from various music research communities, including technologists, librarians, historians, and theorists in a common effort to define best practices for representing a broad range of musical documents and structures.

The official MEI mailing list, MEI-L, is used to inform the community about upcoming events, discuss possible improvements for MEI, evaluate encoding strategies and models, and get support from the full community. The list is open to anyone for subscription, and everyone is welcome to join MEI-L by subscribing to: https://lists.uni-paderborn.de/mailman/listinfo/mei-l.

MEI has a Slack channel that is used for discussion, questions, announcements, and collaboration, https://music-encoding.slack.com. Visit this page for additional details: https://music-encoding.org/community/community-contacts.html.

MEI is hosted by the Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur, Mainz.

      [apologies for multiple postings]

      In What Do Musicologists Do All Day (WDMDAD) we are investigating the use of technology in the work of music researchers in the widest sense. Building on our 2014-2015 survey, we\’re now seeking insight in how your views on and use of technology have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. To participate in our survey, please visit https://opinio.ucl.ac.uk/s?s=76752 . The questions are in English: you can respond in the language you feel most comfortable with. We would very much appreciate your participation and help in circulating this survey to music researchers worldwide.

      Charles Inskip is an associate professor at University College London researching information literacy and digital scholarship, Frans Wiering is an associate professor at Utrecht University and co-chair of the IMS study group in Digital Musicology. If you have any questions, please contact us at c.inskip@ucl.ac.uk or f.wiering@uu.nl.

      Many thanks!

      Charles Inskip and Frans Wiering
