I am delighted to be back in Dublin for this June 11 event organized by the Contemporary Music Centre. I will be speaking about "The Future of Music: Mobile, Video, Social, and...Paid?"
"With access to music now just a click away for most of us, very few of the tried and tested ways of accessing music remain unchanged. Can we, or should we, attempt to predict the future? Have we even begun to deal with the present yet? This major conference brings together high-level international speakers to explore and debate issues around the meaning of digital culture; how it impacts on the creator and the performer; and the implications for copyright in a world which has come to expect music to be free"
Who should attend: creative artists and organizations engaged in any area of
composition, performance, publishing or distribution across all forms of
music in Ireland.
