Groun ded in participatory fieldwork\, it situates Deaf musicians’ experiences a t the intersection of sensory access\, technology\, and cultural identity. The research follows a three-phase methodology: (1) a survey identifying barriers and needs in music-making and existing technologies\; (2) partici patory workshops where Deaf musicians conceptualized non-functional instru ment prototypes\; and (3) the development and evaluation of functional Acc essible Digital Musical Instruments (ADMIs). This presentation focuses on the first two phases\, highlighting two emergent themes: (1) distinctive p atterns of music engagement within the Deaf community\, and (2) the influe nce of Deaf cultural identity on music engagement and technology design. B y centering Deaf perspectives\, the study deepens understanding of how mus ic is created and experienced beyond hearing\, showing how Deaf approaches can inspire inclusive and culturally grounded forms of music-making and t echnology.\n\nErivan Duarte is a musician\, composer\, and PhD candidate i n Music at 9I. His work bridges artistic creation\, accessi bility\, and community engagement. Through participatory research with Dea f and disabled people\, he explores how music\, technology\, and shared cr eative processes can foster inclusion and new forms of creative practice. \n\nThe Doctoral Colloquium is open to all.\n DTSTART:20251112T213000Z DTEND:20251112T230000Z LOCATION:A-832\, Elizabeth Wirth Music Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1E3\, 527 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Doctoral Colloquium (Music) | Erivan Duarte URL:/music/channels/event/doctoral-colloquium-music-er ivan-duarte-367699 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
