Music and Synesthesia, Vienna, July 2020

July 3-5, 2020, Vienna

This conference is centered on music and its relation to synesthesia. It will be the first conference ever devoted exclusively to this issue. We understand synesthesia as a rare neurological trait that causes unusual, often cross-sensory, experiences (e.g., seeing colors when listening to music) and encourage contributions on ...

... historical, theoretical, artistical, pedagogical and empirical questions, which deal with

--- the relation between music and synesthesia

--- the relation between music (and also sound, pitch, accords, timbre) and crossmodal correspondences

--- commonalities and differences between synesthesia and crossmodal correspondences in the context of music

 

... case studies of synesthete composers and performers of music from different genres and cultures: classical, pop, rock, jazz, and especially music of non-western cultures

... the question how synesthesia can influence the way of composing, interpreting or improvising music

... mappings between music and the senses in the context of crossmodal correspondences

... questions about colored hearing

... questions about synesthesia and crossmodal correspondences in the context of ethnomusicology

... relations between music (as well as its parameters) and color, even outside of synesthesia and crossmodal correspondences, for example color and notation, color organs, light shows, music and color in (experimental) film

The keynote speaker is Dr. Richard E. Cytowic, Washington, D.C.
