From June 5th to 9th, 2023, on the downtown Concordia University campus, we will be reflecting collectively on the multiple ways in which Indigenous youth are mobilizing and are being engaged.
STREET STUDIO MUSEUM NATURE gathers works of different periods by Juan Pablo Macías that relate through the constant use of extreme music and its relation to space. Over the years, music has accompanied Macías' research on anarchism as a critique of representation in terms of image-making and mainly as a structuring of thought and its materialization in the social realm and institutions.
The No Outsides Polymorphous Radio Station (NOPRS FM) will present a stream of audio content to conference attendees (and other local radio tuners) through the creation of mini-FM broadcast zones during the three days of the event.
Please join us for the 2023 ISMMS keynote address as we imagine and explore themes of "Indigenous outsider" punk and metal as the soundtrack to a life on the street; how much punk, heavy metal, and rock meant to the author's street-savvy generation; Indigenous interpretations and applications of such music; the meaning of it all with the passing of time, and in the author's case, some modern applications as a result of the book.
During this moderated discussion panel, we will think through the multiplicities of representation in metal across different venues such as music, film and visual art. Panelists will explore the connections, contradictions and paradoxes that emerge when we bring to the forefront people, topics and issues that society at large aims to discard and ignore.

Follow the experiences of teenagers Hunnayna Hemed, Kaymarie Sutherland, and Kendra McDonald as they document the work and world of Halka, a media performance collective composed of university professors, visual artists, world-famous metal musicians, music therapists, academic researchers, and touring DJs.
Join abstract turntablist, sound artist and DJ, Maria Chávez as she leads this hands-on workshop using turntables and vinyl records as instruments in their own right. This workshop includes a demonstration from the artist followed by opportunities for participants to try their hand and some abstract turntablism of their own!
Join your host Jason Wallin and filmmakers Nelson Varas-Diaz and David Hall for a panel discussion on documenting metal culture in contexts as varied as the Global South and Norway. Nelson and David will share some of their perspectives on the ethics of documenting underground cultures and their varied approaches to filmmaking.
Drawing on her latest body of sono-sculptural work and her practice as an abstract turntablist, Maria Chávez will explore the topographical parallels that exist between marble and vinyl.
This workshop will engage participants in a process of re-thinking, queering, remixing, reconfiguring what corpsepaint can do. Utilizing a mix of images, sound and interactive participation, including the opportunity to paint your own faces with provided face paints, "Rainbow Corpsepaint" will bring together artists, musicians, scholars, fans, in a moment of critical reflection and active re-evaluation of the classic black metal practice of corpsepaint design and application.
This roundtable examines five unique ways to teach Metal Studies in the college classroom. Presenters will examine the Metal Studies classroom from a variety of perspectives.
