Reihe: Studies in Cognitive Musicology

Musicology has to cope with transdisciplinary challenges: In the 21st
century linguistics, philosophy, cognitive neurosciences and psychology,
information and media technology, biological anthropology and other
disciplines have become increasingly interested in music research
introducing new concepts, questions, methods and technologies for
investigating music.
In addition, an "intradisciplinary" challenge is musicology's
fractionation into several diverging subdisciplines which puts the
field's unity at risk.

SysMus11, a young researcher conference, strives for putting aside
blinkers and metaphysical prejudices concerning music by including key
lectures about language and music evolution, motor cognition, the
history of music as media and future methodological demands.
The results of SysMus11 are presented in this book which intends to open
up an intradisciplinary as well as transdisciplinary discourse for music
research.
