Within the context of the development over the past decades of a new musicology that shifts the focus away from the autonomous work of art, Tim Summers proposes fifteen “awkward questions” for video game music scholars within the new field. Summers poses the questions rhetorically as a means for self-reflection. The questions are presented in seven thematic sections: sources for studying game music, value and canon, issues connected with linear histories, analytical approaches, conceptualizations of the listener/the player, culture and context, and, finally, audiences and education. He highlights several questions and challenges of methodology within the new musicology that must be grappled with by video game music scholars.

This essay aims to interconnect the aspects of canon, cultural musicology, music and language with the systematic category of dispositif. In a short overview on the disciplinary canon debate, the essay describes the idea of a musical canon and questions its methodological status in musicology. The conclusion is that (aesthetic) value judgements are to be rejected as scientific (consequently rational or intersubjectively reasonable) selection criteria. The second argument draws on Lawrence Kramer's notion of "constructive description", which addresses the relation of music and language and helps in understanding the canon as a specific historical agency of different overlapping discourses. In order to outline an integrative ontology for the epistemological interest of cultural musicology, the last section synthesises these arguments in the Foucauldian idea of dispositif.
