Wherever possible we seek to make the connection between the academic world of research and pedagogy and the industry world of creative practice and commerce, and to examine how they can help each other and promote mutual understanding.
We welcome proposals from any higher education institution, anywhere in the world, wishing to host the conference.

The Journal on the Art of Record Production
The Journal on the Art of Record Production (JARP) is an international open access online peer-reviewed journal promoting the interdisciplinary study of record production. The term ‘record production’ is to be interpreted in the broadest sense as the production of recorded music. JARP was founded in 2006 by Simon Zagorski-Thomas and Katia Isakoff. The guest editor for the first issue was Simon Frith, and for the second issue, Albin Zak. JARP has since published a total of eleven issues.
The journal publishes peer reviewed research papers with contributions from world-renowned industry professionals, and is run by an editorial committee, led by the joint editors-in-chief, Katia Isakoff and Richard James Burgess.
