This volume brings together prominent scholars, artists, composers, and directors to present the latest interdisciplinary ideas and projects in the fields of art history, musicology and multi-media practice. Organized around ways of perceiving, experiencing and creating, the book outlines the state of the field through cutting-edge research case studies. For example, how does art-music practice / thinking communicate activist activities? How do socio-economic and environmental problems affect access to heritage? How do contemporary practitioners interpret past works and what global concerns stimulate new works? In each instance, examples of cross or inter-media works are not thought of in isolation but in a global historical context that shows our cultural existence to be complex, conflicted and entwined. For the first time cross-disciplinary collaborations in ethnomusicology-anthropology, ecomusicology-ecoart-ecomuseology and digital humanities for art history, musicology and practice are prioritized in one volume. The broad topics of this interdisciplinary volume aim to break down disciplinary and conceptual silos. By reconciling perspectives of the ear and the eye with other senses, scholars and practitioners put human creative endeavors in environmental, philosophical, sensorial and social contexts. These varied forms of scholarly and social activism, artivism and increasing access for diverse publics all lead to an agenda for change: both for individuals, artistically and conceptually, and for the myriad collective ways that humans dwell on the planet.
