Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce the 2019 edition of the PAC conference, ‘Phonetic
and phonological variation in contemporary English: Xperience /
Xperimentation', due to take place from Tuesday June 4 to Wednesday June 5
2019 and hosted by the Laboratoire Parole et Langage and Aix-Marseille
University in Aix-en-Provence. 

We will welcome as invited guest speakers Dominic WATT, from the University of
York and Emmanuel FERRAGNE from Paris Diderot University. Both have worked on
varieties of English and are currently working on forensic phonetics, among
other topics. 

The PAC programme (www.pacprogramme.net) gathers researchers interested in the
study of variation in contemporary spoken English, adhering to a common
protocol for data collection and annotation. PAC conferences have been
organized since 2000 and have been willing to welcome researchers studying
spoken English worldwide and from a wide variety of backgrounds. 

The 2019 edition of the conference will focus on « experience/experimentation
», in French « l'expérience » (which is polysemic). People working in the
framework of the PAC programme are used to following a field approach. The
data collected within the framework of the PAC programme may easily be
exploited by experimentalists as well. The idea is to open the conference to
researchers working in a more experimental setting. We would like to make the
link between the two domains and our guest speakers will show that the two
approaches may be complementary in the study of language. 

Papers concerned by either field work or experimental methods or combining the
two domains are welcome. A wide range of issues can be explored, matching the
research axes of the PAC programme, such as, and among others, studies of
English in urban contexts, analyses of prosodic variation, of L2 English or
papers concerned with tools and annotation strategies. The audience will
consist of colleagues and students working on spoken English corpora and the
presentations are all in English. The deadline for sending a title with a
one-page abstract (excluding references) is January 7, 2019.


2nd Call for Papers:

Deadline extension until 18 January 2019, see the updated website.
