Additional Research Activities
Music Research Institute (MRi), University of North Carolina at Greensboro. As founding Director of the MRi (2003-2014), I oversaw all the research, sometimes only tangentially and other times more directly. We divided our work nominally into six areas (BioMusic, Neuroimaging of Musicians, Musicians Hearing Health, Music Education, Music Performance, and Ethnomusicology-Ecocriticism). From 2005-2014, MRi faculty and students published 168 papers and gave 331 presentations at international and national conferences. Here are a few of the projects in which I have been involved:
BioMusic
BioMusic Science Exhibition and Public Programs Project. ($2.7M from NSF). P. Gray, PI. I served on the scientific advisory panel.
Roger and Katy Payne Marine Acoustic Collection, Gray & Hodges.
BioMusic Research and Education Program in the Yucatan. Gray; I made the initial visit to Mexico to talk with government officials.
Neuroimaging
With Robin Wilkins, we built a new team at the Gateway MRI Center, Joint School for Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
I worked with Jonathan Burdette, Paul Laurienti, and Robin Wilkins in the Laboratory for Complex Brain Networks (WFUSM) where we applied network science methods to music listening.
I worked with Jonathan Burdette and Joe Maldjian in the Advanced Neuroscience Imaging Laboratory at Wake Forest University School of Medicine (WFUSM) where we produced a series of papers on multisensory processing in musicians.
MusicBIRD (online database of neuromusic research articles: performingarts.uncg.edu/music-research-institute/research-areas/neuroimaging-of-musicians#musicbird) was created by a doctoral student of mine, Richard Edwards, currently at Ohio Wesleyan University.
Music-Related Hearing Loss
Susan Phillips (Audiology), Sandra Teglas and I developed a Hearing Conservation Policy for the School of Music.
I have worked with Drs. Phillips and Teglas on several projects and published articles related to musicians’ hearing.
Music Education
Mary Luehrsen (NAMM) and I were co-leaders of a team directing Sounds of Learning: The Impact of Music Education. The NAMM Foundation funded over a million dollars of research in music education, including one of the few postdoctoral positions ever funded in music education.
I am involved with my music education colleagues at UNCG in a series of ongoing investigations into professional role development in music education.
Colleagues and I have investigated a variety of topics, including rapid identification of musical genres (Mace, Wagoner, Teachout, and Hodges), jazz improvisation (Beaty, Smeekens, Silvia, Hodges, & Kane), musical imagery, and everyday music listening through experience sampling methods (Silvia, Beaty, & Hodges).
Institute for Music Research (IMR), University of Texas at San Antonio (1992-2003). As founder and Director of the IMR, I was involved in all the activities of the IMR.
