About the journal

LEONARDO MUSIC JOURNAL: AIMS AND SCOPE
LEONARDO MUSIC JOURNAL (LMJ) is an international journal for composers, sound and multimedia artists and others interested in the contemporary sonic arts. It features articles written by composers and artists about their own work.
LMJ has three main editorial areas. First, it is particularly concerned with the interplay between new technologies, music and sound art. Second, LMJ seeks to document ways in which contemporary science and technology are changing our understanding of sound and music, as well as other ways in which science and technology may be relevant to contemporary composers and sound artists. Third, it seeks to document the work of composers and sound artists developing new multimedia art forms that combine sound with other media, particularly works that take advantage of new multimedia and interactive technologies.
In addition to documenting the work of composers and sound artists, LMJ seeks to address theoretical and historical issues that are relevant to contemporary sound and music making. Issues in experimental sound work and music that do not utilize contemporary science and technology are also addressed to the extent that they represent important elements in the development of new directions in contemporary music, sound and multimedia arts worldwide.
Instructions to Authors
MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION AND ACCEPTANCE PROCEDURE
Information Updated July 2007
Leonardo accepts both solicited and unsolicited texts for review. Prior to developing a complete manuscript, authors are encouraged to submit an outline to the editors, who will make a preliminary decision regarding the topic's relevancae to the journal's aims and scope and will provide suggestions for developing the manuscript.
Manuscripts and manuscript proposals (except those being submitted for Leonardo Transactions) should be e-mailed directly to the main editorial office at leonardomanuscripts@gmail.com. Manuscripts being submitted for Leonardo Transactions should be submitted electronically in final camera ready form through the Leonardo Transactions website. Authors should also send the names and contact information of two colleagues who would be capable of giving the manuscript a technical review (preferably working outside of the author's affiliated institution so as to avoid conflicts of interest). If you would like a particular member of the Editorial Board to look at your manuscript, please note this when you submit your manuscript, but do not submit your manuscript to them directly. If you are submitting your manuscript for a special project, please also note this when you submit your manuscript. Manuscripts for initial review may be submitted with embedded low-resolution images, which facilitates the review process. When submitting a manuscript, authors should include a statement indicating that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts must be under the 5,000 word count limit (including references and figure captions) before it will be considered for review.
The review process involves peer review of all submitted articles longer than 2,500 words, including those solicited by the editors. Generally each manuscript is reviewed by one member of the Leonardo editorial board, one technical peer reviewer and an in-house editor. A request by an editor for a manuscript is not a guarantee that it will be published.
Authors are notified of acceptance, rejection or the need for revision within four months. Texts are judged on the basis of relevance to the aims and scope of the journal, originality, rigor of thought and the use of straightforward and precise prose. Texts should be condensed as much as possible and written to be accessible to the interested lay reader. Papers may include statements of belief and speculations, which should be denoted as such.
Most manuscripts require revision by the author before final acceptance. Revised manuscripts accepted for publication must be submitted as unformatted word-processed text without embedded illustrations or auto-formatted references. Each illustration should be submitted as a separate high-resolution file (see the following section on Illustrations). Texts longer than 2,500 words must be accompanied by a 100-word abstract. After a manuscript is accepted, it is edited at the editorial office and returned to the author for approval prior to publication.
Leonardo is an archival journal and does not accept manuscripts if rapid publication is required. Typical time between submission of a manuscript and appearance in print is one year. Adherence to the above guidelines minimizes revisions and shortens the overall editorial processing time. Authors requiring faster publication schedules may wish to consider submitting to Leonardo Transactions, a rapid-publication venue for timely material in the field (restrictions apply).
All texts must be submitted in English. Authors not fluent in English should write in their native language and then have the text professionally translated before submitting it. Since the journal is read in many countries, authors should avoid esoteric words, non-English words, slang, idioms and colloquialisms. Abbreviations and special terms, especially highly technical terms, should be defined in the text or in a glossary at the end of the text. Acronyms should be spelled out on the first appearance.
Authors should review previous Leonardo texts for general style and format. The LEONARDO staff will not make major editorial revisions and cannot accept manuscripts requiring such revisions.

TITLES
Titles must be descriptive, clearly reflecting the contents of texts and the type of artwork discussed in order to assist in indexing and information-retrieval services; two-part titles are encouraged.
APPENDIXES
Extremely technical or detailed material should be placed at the end of the text in one or more appendices, to which the text should refer.
REFERENCES AND NOTES
The use of references is strongly encouraged. A list of general references in the form of a bibliography is also desirable. Footnotes are not used; such notes should be formatted as references. References should be numbered in citation order and listed at the end of the text. Reference numbers should appear in brackets in the text and each number should be used only once. Do not submit the manuscript with auto-formatted references such as are available with many word-processing programs. The following forms should be used when referring to:
Books and Exhibition Catalogues:
Books and Exhibition Catalogues: 1. Author, Title of Book (place of publication: publisher, date) page numbers. Example: L. Artel, Visual or Plastic Arts (London: John Doe Press, 2002) p. 5.
Include name of editor or translator, edition, date of original publication and any other pertinent information. Include page numbers of quotes.
Periodicals:
2. Author, "Title of Article," Name of Periodical, Volume Number, Issue Number, pages (date). Example: L. Artel, "Art and Technology," Leonardo Vol. 39, No. 1, 435-441 (2005).
Include both volume and issue numbers. Include page numbers of quotes.
PROOFS AND OFFPRINTS
Draft-edited versions of articles are returned to authors for proofreading, clarification and approval prior to typesetting. Twenty-five offprints and a copy of the issue in which their work appears are provided free of charge to authors of texts longer than 2,500 words. Authors may order additional offprints when returning the offprint order form to MIT Press. At this time they may also purchase additional discounted copies of the issue in which their text appears. Lead authors should distribute offprints among co-authors.
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
Authors or potential guest editors wishing to explore options outside of these guidelines should contact the main editorial office.
