Diversity in Music Technology: Diversity Initiatives and Insights From Music Information Retrieval - Blair Kaneshiro - ADC23

Like many STEM fields, music technology faces challenges attracting and retaining diverse community members. Since 2011, the International Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR) and Women in Music Information Retrieval (WiMIR) communities have sought to address this issue through a series of initiatives – ranging from financial support to attend ISMIR conferences to workshop events and mentorship – that were launched to promote opportunities for women in the field. In this talk I will discuss the initiatives: Their motivation and formation, complementary aims, success factors, and evolution toward supporting a broader range of underrepresented groups. I will conclude with a set of insights that may inform the design of diversity initiatives in other music technology communities.
