Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce the 2019 edition of the annual 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 shall welcome as invited guest speakers
Dominic Watt, from the University of York and Emmanuel Ferragne from  The
Paris Diderot University of Paris Diderot. Both have worked on varieties of
English and are currently working on forensic phonetics, among other topics.

The PAC programme (http://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. The PAC conferences have been
organized annually 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 2 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.


Call for Papers:

The deadline for sending a title with a one-page anonymous abstract (excluding
references) is January 7, 2019.

Please visit the conference web site, where you can find a template for
abstracts and upload your abstract submission:
https://pacaix2019.sciencesconf.org/ (you will need to create a sciencesconf
account if you don’t already have one).

Notification of acceptance will be sent by mid February 2019.
