Modern Music Scenes
CALL FOR PAPERS
AAG Meetings │ Denver, USA │ April 6-10
Organizers: Patrick Adler (University of Toronto); Richard Florida (University 
of Toronto); Michael Seman (Colorado State); Jesse Elliott (The Music District) 
; Bryce Merrill (The Bohemian Foundation)

Music production predates market exchange and is still at the modern economy's 
leading edge. The music industry boasts low barriers to entry, short product 
cycles, high levels of amateur production and collaboration, and a culture of 
experimentation. It is sensitive to technological change and has been wholly 
remade by the printing press, the radio transmitter, amplification, television, 
digitization. In addition to changing how music is produced, technological 
change continues to alter how music is distributed and organized. Local music 
production systems are regularly remade as music continues to evolve.
Papers in this session discuss modern music scenes, defined as local music 
production networks. We seek papers that consider any aspect of how modern 
music is produced and consumed in scenes, using any methodology. Economic 
geographers, human geographers, cultural geographers and urban planning 
scholars are all encouraged to submit. All papers will be discussed by a senior 
scholar.
