8/20 ELM: Expression, Communication And Expression Conference

ELM: Expression, Communication And Expression Conference

Saturday, August 20th, 2022

12:00 AM - 11:59 PM

Storrs Campus, Storrs Campus, Storrs Campus
TBA

Expression, Language, and Music (ELM) is to be a biennial conference that brings together researchers from linguistics, music theory, anthropology, neurobiology, cognitive science, philosophy, and more, with the aim of integrating recent findings and insights from diverse perspectives concerning, e.g. the significance of emotional expression for both music and language, the importance of systematic structure in both music and language, and the interrelations between expressive, musical, and communicative capacities and their relevance for understanding the emergence of language (in ontogeny and phylogeny). Future conferences may focus more narrowly on a subset of these topics.

We are tentatively scheduling the inaugural in-person meeting of ELM for August 20-22, 2022.
