A year ago we have started a research on the influence of gender and sex on the field and the praxis of the sounding arts. The survey is now summarized and has through its 155 participants addressed stereotypes and their ongoing change, the field and its dynamics, and the sounding arts as embedded in society and history.
The summary of this non-academic, qualitative research with experiences and opinions by artists from different parts of the field can be read here as pdf, We can send over a paper copy as well, if you care for one, just ask.
