I am about to travel to Asheville, North Carolina, for the Ecomusics and Ecomusicologies conference, to be held from Thursday through Monday at the University of North Carolina Asheville. The international conference, which has become an annual event (it met previously in Brisbane, Australia, and in New Orleans), brings together theorists and researchers with performers and practitioners. Panels on topics including “musical collaboration, improvisation, green industry practices, acoustic ecology, ecopoetics, soundscapes, sustainability, contemporary composition, musical activism and other fields” will be complemented by concerts, performances, and sound installations. Details can be found here.

In the meantime, several other things in my In-Box deserve sharing:

• A CFP for the Climate Change and Culture conference, to take place at the University of Prince Edward Island, May 28-31, 2015.
• At Terrain.Org, Eric Magrane has shared a series introduction and guest editorial for a poetic field research series, Biosphere 2, Poetry, and the Anthropocene.
• Patrice Maniglier has written an extensive review of Bruno Latour’s An Inquiry into Modes of Existence in Radical Philosophy, which you can read here.
• And the Environmental Humanities Now blog aggregator (which I’ve mentioned once before) continues “live and in beta testing.” See it, subscribe to it, and contribute to it here.
