Listening Otherwise: Relationalities of the Othered

Authors

  • Mark V. Campbell University of Toronto Scarborough

Abstract

In this forum piece, I explore the potential of listening as a performative act by focusing on the experiences and skills essential to the practice of DJing. I find the field of remix studies a fruitful arena to expand and explore the possibilities of music studies beyond the silos of contemporary musical analysis and scholarship.
