SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Xenharmonikon is a peer-reviewed online journal providing articles and information that capture the many varied innovations of current intonational practice. Xenharmonikon follows in the spirit of the original print edition by presenting articles and reviews on tuning theory, composition, instrument building, software development and information about tuning-related events around the world.

Innovations in the field of tuning warrant innovative forms of presentation. One of the goals of the new Xenharmonikon is to recognize the potential for an online journal to enhance the presentation of ideas through use of graphics, images, audio and video alongside text.

Recognizing developments both within academia and beyond, the journal is open to different writing styles as long as the submission is a clear and concise presentation that provides insight and expands the reader’s knowledge about possibilities in the ever-growing field of intonational practice.

It is the responsibility of the author to obtain copyright clearances if required.

Articles submitted to Xenharmonikon should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for another publication. Any subsequent publication of the same material elsewhere should acknowledge its first publication in Xenharmonikon.

Potential authors are welcome to contact the editors to discuss their ideas and/or seek assistance with submissions. Articles longer than 15,000 words should be discussed beforehand with the editors.

Submissions are accepted via the form provided on this page. Any combination of text, images, audio, video, hyperlinks, animation, or other media suitable for online presentation is encouraged and can be embedded within the initial submission.
