SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi everyone,
Thank you so much to those who weighed in on this. Based on this small sample, it seems like we’re split between those who would like to shut the group down and those who would like to keep the group going as a space for sharing research.
I tend to lean toward Amy’s position… I avoid posting on Facebook in general, and am not…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi all,
As long as all the official business of the the Post-1945 Group takes place on HC Commons, I really don’t see any harm in keeping the FB Group. (And I don’t find approving new members particularly burdensome.) In fact, I would say: if the post-1945 group only sees itself as focused on SMT exclusive business, it has somewhat lost sight…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi all,
Even if the new members aren’t in academic music theory, it might be nice to keep the platform as a way of just having our research have a bit wider of a reach. That way our research might be read by a few more people.
Of course, there’s a risk of a heavy moderation burden if the group ever stops being quiet. My suggestion would be to…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi All,
I am also not on FB any longer, so our decision doesn’t impact me at all, but I think HC is a much more appropriate venue for professional discussions and sharing information about relevant events.
Best,
Sara

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi, all,
As someone who still receives FB requests for the group, I can attest to this issue. And to second Amy’s gratitude, thanks Tara and Laura, for reaching out to us. My proposed solution is as follows: yes, dissolve the FB group (with proper notification to members of it); but when events are to be publicized (CFPs, sessions, etc.), have…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoHi Tara,
Those who know me well know that I am militantly anti-Facebook. I know that many academics and musicians have determined that they need a facebook profile (there are of course personal reasons as well), but I feel that the fascist and racist policies Z has pursued the past two years are at odds with our institutional values (only one of…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months agoDear community,
As some of you know, our interest group currently maintains a group page on Facebook. The initial idea behind this page was that it would be open to anyone (as long as the Facebook account appeared legitimate), since individuals outside the SMT orbit might still want to engage in productive dialogue about music analysis with us.…[Read more]
