[Dancecult-l] Dancecult - the Journal

[Graham St John]

Hello

Just a reminder that Dancecult: Journal of Electronic Dance Music 
Culture (DJEDMC) opened its doors late last year and we are accepting 
submissions for our first edition.

http://www.dancecult.net/journal/

I want to emphasise that the journal features two main categories of 
peer-reviewed submissions : regular featured articles and "from the 
floor" pieces. Featured articles are 5000-8000 words (including 
endnotes, captions and bibliography), and must include a 150 word 
abstract.

 From the floor (FF) pieces include field reports, mini-ethnographies, 
and interviews. Pieces for this section should be from 1000-3000 
words in length. Rather than written in the style of an article with 
formal analysis and many citations, FF pieces will be more 
conversational and creative. They may include substantive multimedia 
components. The emphasis is on ethnography, style and creativity.

The journal now has an advisory board of over 20 members.

And, I am pleased to welcome Karenza Moore from Lancaster University 
on board as our first Reviews Editor. If you are publishing a book on 
EDMC, DJEDMC will be an ideal venue to have it reviewed. Please send 
books (or films) to Karenza at:

Thanks to our sponsor (so far): the Centre for Cultural Studies 
Research at  the University of East London!

And, as always, thanks to Managing Editor, Eliot Bates, for his 
assistance and web savvy.


Graham
