Music Notation and Visualization


MISSION STATEMENT

The Music Notation and Visualization Interest Group (MNVIG) seeks to create a scholarly forum, where research, discussion and creativity are promoted, when concerning the representation of musical sound through rendered code, staff notation and graphic scores, be it autograph, printed and/or electronic. Because music is an ethereal art, practices of visualization are similarly encompassed while inviting multi-disciplinary reflections for a greater conceptual understanding. By sharing common ground with other specialties also, MNVIG aims to collaborate with scholars in early music, archival and multimedia groups in particular.
