The study group on MaM ("Music and Media") was initiated by Prof. Dr. Emile Wennekes and launched in Amsterdam in 2009 as an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary forum. Subsequently, the IMS Directorium officially accepted MaM as a study group. MaM welcomes a broad variety of subjects, methodologies and perspectives relevant to the interrelationship between music and media. The StG annually organizes a conference in a different country, each edition in cooperation with local initiatives.
