项目摘要

The principal subject of the research: This engagement fellowship takes the completed Instruments INDIA sound archive (established 2013), with its five hours of sound recordings of 28 Indian musical instruments as a central resource to engage others with diversity in sample pack creation and distribution. Working in partnership with Milap (the UK's leading Indian Arts Development Trust) and leading sample pack developers/distributors (Loopmasters, Symphonic and Ableton), sample packs will be created and distributed together with new guidance on sample pack content, labelling and representation. By creating sample packs curated from this archive of sound material for use amongst the wider sample-based music community, recordings of Indian musical instruments will be accessed and applied in new creative works not limited to the scope of single genres, styles or functions. Sample packs have a history of placing 'world music' labels onto their non-Western sound offerings and many conform to stereotyped notions of what is regarded as Indian music. In addressing these outdated, incorrect and often prejudiced perceptions, conversations can take place between musicians, creators, sample pack distributors, educators and academics to consider sound's role in reflecting, appreciating and celebrating cultures. Key aims: Widening access to such sample packs will increase uptake of materials within sample-based music of differing genres from broader user demographics (including BAME), benefiting musicians, creators and producers in the creative industries. Packaging Instruments INDIA into accessible sample packs takes steps to dismantle stereotypes still prevalent in this sector and deepens understanding of diversity. Foregrounding contributing musicians within the process of sample creation provides an opportunity to make visible the authors of these unique sounds, enabling their voices to be heard in the digital landscape of sample downloads. More ambitiously, the circulation of such sounds is a move towards building acceptance and tolerance of difference through sound and its application.A case for role modelling via diverse sample pack availability is made here together with aspirational mirroring (where users are able to see and hear aspects of their culture in operation within all walks of society, including sample distribution services). Access to high quality audio samples across leading sample pack distribution platforms will promote resources from underrepresented or overlooked groups of our creative industry. Sharing technical know-how to promote oneself through online platforms provides a CPD element within and beyond Milap's networks. Where and how the research would be undertaken: Keele University as the host institution will be the base for project work to be undertaken. A series of online engagement activities will be conducted as a means of creating an archive of these events:- An engagement panel discussing sample pack creation, diversity and representation in the respective fields of sample pack distributors, creators, musicians and music bodies.- Training sessions for Music and Music Technology educators on sample pack use within teaching situations encouraging consideration for diversity and representation. - Reconnection opportunities informing sample packs users with the musicians who created these sounds. - Published open access guidance regarding good practice for sample packs creation. Who else would be involved: The project continues its partnership with Milap and builds on connections with online sample pack distributors (Ableton, Symphonic and Loopmasters). Links with music bodies (MusicHE and Sound and Music) will be continued to convene events and promote new creative opportunities. A PGRA and audio technician will undertake sample pack curatorial work and engagement activities, and will both play a pivotal role in promoting the availability of these new resources.

该研究的主要主题：该参与奖学金以完成的乐器印度声音档案（成立于2013年），其五小时的录音28印度乐器作为中心资源，以吸引其他人在样品包创作和分发方面的多样性。与Milap（英国领先的印度艺术发展信托基金）和领先的样品包开发商/分销商（Loopmasters，Symphonic和Ableton）合作，样品包将与样品包内容，标签和代表性的新指南一起创建和分发。通过创建从这个声音材料档案中策划的样本包，供更广泛的基于样本的音乐社区使用，印度乐器的录音将被访问并应用于新的创意作品，而不限于单一流派，风格或功能的范围。样本包有一个历史，把“世界音乐”的标签，他们的非西方的声音产品和许多符合什么是被视为印度音乐的刻板印象。在解决这些过时的，不正确的，往往是偏见的看法，音乐家，创作者，样品包分销商，教育工作者和学者之间可以进行对话，考虑声音在反映，欣赏和庆祝文化的作用。主要目标：扩大对这些样本包的访问将增加对来自更广泛的用户群体（包括BAME）的不同流派的样本音乐中的材料的吸收，从而使创意产业的音乐家，创作者和制作人受益。将印度的仪器包装成可访问的样品包采取步骤，消除在这一部门仍然普遍存在的陈规定型观念，加深对多样性的理解。在样本创作过程中突出贡献音乐家提供了一个机会，使这些独特声音的作者可见，使他们的声音能够在样本下载的数字环境中被听到。更雄心勃勃的是，这种声音的流通是一种通过声音及其应用建立对差异的接受和容忍的举措。这里通过不同的样本包可用性以及理想的镜像（用户能够看到和听到他们的文化在社会各行各业中运作的各个方面，包括样本分发服务），提出了一个角色建模的案例。在领先的样本包分发平台上访问高质量的音频样本将促进我们创意产业中代表性不足或被忽视的群体的资源。通过在线平台分享技术知识来宣传自己，在Milap的网络内外提供了CPD元素。研究将在哪里以及如何进行：基尔大学作为主办机构将是项目工作的基础。将开展一系列在线参与活动，作为创建这些活动档案的一种手段：-参与小组讨论样品包创建，多样性和样品包分销商，创作者，音乐家和音乐机构各自领域的代表性。为音乐和音乐技术教育工作者举办关于在教学情况下使用样本包的培训课程，鼓励考虑多样性和代表性。- 重新连接的机会，通知样本包用户与音乐家谁创造了这些声音。- 发布了关于创建样品包的良好实践的开放获取指南。还有谁会参与其中：该项目继续与Milap合作，并与在线样品包分销商（Ableton，Symphonic和Loopmasters）建立联系。将继续与音乐机构（MusicHE和声音与音乐）建立联系，以举办活动并促进新的创作机会。PGRA和音频技术人员将承担样品包策展工作和参与活动，并将在促进这些新资源的可用性方面发挥关键作用。
