We have before us the sixth issue of INSAM Journal of Contemporary Music, Art and Technology. This is the second issue in a row dedicated to the global crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. After the overwhelming response from all over the world to the call for papers and provocative inspections that ensued, here we wanted to discuss the ways in which technology shapes and enables work in the areas of music, arts, humanities, and the education process, this time inviting our collaborators to discuss the shortcomings and struggles of the working processes in these fields. The main theme, “Music, Art and Humanities in the Time of Global Crisis”, expanded from the Main Theme section into the interviews as well.

In the seventh issue of INSAM Journal of Contemporary Music, Art and Technology, we are continuing our series on themes dedicated to art, music, and humanities in times of global crisis. After dealing with more general questions regarding these areas of creation, in this volume we are thinking about the issue of mental and bodily health during the Covid-19 pandemic and its possible ties and representations in music and art.

The papers in this thematic issue are dedicated to the following topics: interreligious dialogue, negotiation of ethnic and religious affiliation in everyday life, religious conversion, inherited institutions of the Ottoman society and attitude towards them, (re)presentation of historical figures and events in literary narratives, Muslim religious organizations in the past and present. The thematic issue aims to contribute to academic dialogue in domestic and international context, in which strategies, topoi and actors related to the Ottoman heritage, Muslims and Islam are very current. Радови у овом тематском броју посвећени су следећим темама: међурелигијски дијалог, преговарање о етничкој и верској припадности у свакодневном животу, верска конверзија, наслеђене институције османског друштва и однос према њима, (ре)презентација историјских личности и догађаја у књижевни наративи, муслиманске верске организације у прошлости и садашњости. Тематско издање има за циљ да допринесе академском дијалогу у домаћем и међународном контексту, у којем су веома актуелне стратегије, топои и актери везани за отоманско наслеђе, муслимане и ислам.
