Abstract

Preparing Organised Sound 's thematic issue on ‘gender in music technology’ has been exciting and challenging. Exciting, because this field is young with only a few publications around. Such a thematic issue offers an opportunity to bring people together who are active in this field, and thus works towards the creation of a ‘critical mass’. Hopefully it will stimulate others to think and write about these gender issues as well. But the area itself also posed a challenge. Would we receive enough submissions? Would we be able to publish a sufficiently interesting issue on gender?
