MUME 2017 CONCERT - CALL FOR WORKS
by Kıvanç Tatar 30 Jan '17

30 Jan '17

MUME 2017 CONCERT -CALL FOR WORKS Call for Works: The Musical Metacreation Concert at the Eighth International Conference on Computational Creativity, Atlanta, Georgia, June 2017Key Dates April 20th: submission deadline. May 10th: notification. June 18th: concert rehearsals. June 19th: MuMe concert. June 19th–23rd: International Conference on Computational Creativity. (MuMe academic workshop is on June 19th and morning of 20th). Overview Creators of musically metacreative systems are invited to submit works for a concert of musical metacreation, as part of the Eighth International Conference on Computational Creativity, at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta. Submitted works can be of any musical style but *must involve a performative element* and *must involve the use of computational creativity techniques in the creation of the work*. Examples from previous MuMe concerts include, but are not limited to: reproduction of musical style using machine learning; the evolution of musical structures using interactive genetic algorithms; rule-based systems; systems based on emergence or self-organisation; systems that perform music data mining to create remixes, and so on. Information on the selection committee, musicians, concert venue and available equipment will be made available soon; all up-to-date information can be found here <http://musicalmetacreation.org/mume-2017-concert/>. Types of Work Any work related to MuMe that can be presented in a performance context will be considered. This includes: - Improvising agents that perform alongside live musicians. - Automated composition systems that generate music in realtime or pre-compose music for performers, as well as automated DJ systems. - Systems that use AI methods for other creative objectives, such as harmonising, intelligent looping, or finding suitable matches for a target phrase. - Systems that generate lyrics. - Music that uses evolution, emergence or ecosystemic concepts. We are also interested in submissions of musebots <http://metacreation.net/musebots/> and other types of interactive installation works relevant to MuMe. Submission Process Please submit a one page PDF describing your work to Arne Eigenfeldt: arne_e(a)sfu.ca. Your submission should: - Describe the work; - Explain how the work relates to the MuMe theme; - Give a relatively detailed technical description of the system*; - Give detailed performance requirements. As necessary, this may include a stage plan, equipment needs, technical support needs, and performing musicians (you can use additional PDF pages for any supporting items); - A link to any additional documentary material such as audio or video recordings, or online software (highly recommended); - Credits and biography (name, affiliation, short biography up to 150 words). * It is common to receive submissions that are highly ambiguous about what the proposed system actually does. *Works will be rejected if this is the case.* The description does not need to be highly technically detailed, but it should remove any fundamental ambiguity. Selection Process *Submissions should not be anonymised.* All submissions will be reviewed by three independent members of the selection committee. Once these reviews have been completed the reviewers and the chairs will discuss these works and reviews. The chairs will provide a meta-review, the three original reviews, and a final decision. Reviewers will be anonymous to the authors, but not to each other. The final decision lies with the chairs, in consultation with the committee. Upon Acceptance Artists are required to be in attendance and set up their own equipment. At least one artist must register for the ICCC conference and MuMe workshop. A schedule for performances, rehearsals and soundchecks will be made available in the week before the concert. Rehearsals will be on the Sunday 18th June unless otherwise arranged. Soundchecks will be prior to the concert on the afternoon ofMonday 19th June. -- Kıvanç Tatar ---------------------------------- PhD Student Interactive Arts and Technology Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, Canada Email: kivanctatar(a)gmail.com Website: https://kivanctatar.wordpress.com/

Dear Colleagues, Please help us circulate the CFP of MOCO 2017 among your communities. 3rd Call for Papers and Practice Work MOCO 2017 ——————————————————————————————————————— International Conference on Movement and Computing (MOCO17) Intersecting Art, Meaning, Cognition, Technology ——————————————————————————————————————— 28-30th June, London UK Goldsmiths University of London http://moco17.movementcomputing.org <http://moco17.movementcomputing.org/> We would like to invite submissions for paper presentations, performances, workshops and more to the 4th International Conference on Movement and Computing (MOCO) which is to be held in London. MOCO is an interdisciplinary conference that explores the use of computational technology to support and understand human movement practice (e.g. computational analysis) as well as movement as a means of interacting with computers (e.g. movement interfaces). This requires a wide range of computational tasks including modeling, representation, segmentation, recognition, classification, or generation of movement information but also an interdisciplinary understanding of movement that ranges from biomechanics to embodied cognition and the phenomenology of bodily experience. We therefore invite submissions from a wide range of disciplines including (but not limited to): Human-Computer Interaction, Psychology, Dance, Artificial Intelligence, Neuroscience, Sports Science, Machine Learning, Cognitive Science, Visual Arts, Robotics, Philosophy, Anthropology, Music, Affective Computing, Games, Healthcare and Animation. MOCO is open to a wide range of ways of presenting your work. As well as papers for oral and poster presentations, we invite submission of a wide range of practice work such as demos, performances, games, artistic works and movement workshops (in which participants take part in a guided movement activity). We encourage submitters to be creative in proposals for practice sessions and are open to novel formats. ———————————— Suggested Topics ———————————— • Expressive movement-based interaction • Movement analysis and analytics • Machine learning for movement • Movement representation • Somatic practice and design • Modeling movement qualities and expressive movement • Mechatronics and creative robotics • Design for movement in digital art • Gesture Interaction • Movement generation • Movement and sound interaction • Movement computation in ergonomics, sports, and health • Sensori-motor learning with audio/visual feedback • Embodied cognition and movement • Visualizing and sonifying movement • Modeling kinaesthetic empathy • Embodied and whole body interaction • Expressive movement analysis and synthesis • Design for movement in digital art • Semantic models for movement representation • Movement Notation Systems (e.g. Laban or Eshkol-Wachman) and computation • Dance and technology • Biosensing, biocontrol and movement • Movement expression in avatar, artificial agents, virtual humans or robots. • Music and movement • Philosophical perspectives and reflection on movement and computing —————————— Submission —————————— The conference is an opportunity to present a research or study or details of collaborative work.

Application deadline approaching: the MS and PhD degrees in music technology at Georgia Tech
by Jason Freeman 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

[apologies for cross postings] Georgia Tech is now accepting applications for the MS and PhD programs in music technology for matriculation in August 2017. All PhD students, and a limited number of MS students, receive graduate research assistantships that cover tuition and pay a competitive monthly stipend. The deadline for applications is January 10, 2017. The MS in Music Technology is a two-year program that instills in students the theoretical foundation, technical skills, and creative aptitude to design the disruptive technologies that will enable new modes of music creation and consumption in a changing industry. Students take courses in areas such as music information retrieval, music perception and cognition, signal processing, interactive music, the history of electronic music, and technology ensemble. They also work closely with faculty on collaborative research projects and on their own MS project or thesis. Recent students in the program have worked and/or interned at companies such as Apple, Google, Avid, Dolby, Bose, Gracenote, Pandora, Sennheiser, Ableton, and Spotify, and gone on to PhD studies. Applicants are expected to have an undergraduate degree in music, computing, engineering, or a related discipline, and they should possess both strong musical and technical skills. Students in the PhD program in Music Technology pursue individualized research agendas in close collaboration with faculty in areas such as interactive music, robotic musicianship, music information retrieval, digital signal processing, mobile music, network music, and music education, focusing on conducting and disseminating novel research with a broad impact. PhD students are also trained in research methods, teaching pedagogy, and an interdisciplinary minor field as they prepare for careers in academia, at industry research labs, or in their own startup companies. PhD applicants are expected to hold a Masters degree in music technology or from an allied field, such as computing, music, engineering, or media arts and sciences. All applicants must demonstrate mastery of core masters-level material covered in Music Technology, including music theory, performance, composition, and/or analysis; music information retrieval; digital signal processing and synthesis; interactive music systems design; and music cognition. Both the MS and PhD programs are housed within the School of Music at Georgia Tech, in close collaboration with the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology (GTCMT). The GTCMT is an international center for creative and technological research in music, focusing on the development and deployment of innovative musical technologies that transform the ways in which we create and experience music. Its mission is to provide a collaborative framework for committed students, faculty, and researchers from all across campus to apply their musical, technological, and scientific creativity to the development of innovative artistic and technological artifacts. Core faculty in the music technology program include Gil Weinberg (robotic musicianship and sonification), Jason Freeman (participatory and collaborative systems, education, and composition), Alexander Lerch (music information retrieval and digital signal processing), Timothy Hsu (acoustics), Frank Clark (multimedia and network music), and Chris Moore (recording and production).

puredata.info server outage resolved
by IEM - network operating center (IOhannes m zmoelnig) 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

dear patchers, as you might have noticed, the puredata.info server (including your beloved Pd mailinglists) went offline during the Christmas holidays, with no-one nearby to resolve the issues (triggered by a multi-day power outage which albeit planned by some parties was only communicated to the involved parties on *very* short notice). we hope this gave you the time to create some spectacular patches. this mail is to confirm that the services are up and running again. happy new year. fgamsdr IOhannes -- IEM - network operation center mailto:noc@iem.at

PURE DATA BENJOLIN
by Derek Holzer 17 Nov '16

17 Nov '16

PRESENTING the PURE DATA BENJOLIN The Benjolin is a standalone synthesizer designed by Rob Hordijk from the Netherlands in 2009 and available as an open hardware project online. It contains two oscillators (one LFO and one VCO), a voltage controlled filter and a circuit called a “Rungler”, which allows chaotic cross-modulation possibilities between the different parts of the circuit. Hordijk refers to the Benjolin as a circuit which has been “bent by design.” This Pure Data implementation of the Benjolin was coded by Derek Holzer in SEP-NOV 2016 in Helsinki, after several years of producing customized hardware Benjolins from his Berlin studio. The Pd Benjolin includes some modifications of the original design, including a Looping switch, an external Filter Source and an External Clock Source. FEEDBACK + BUG REPORTS WELCOME! DETAILS + DOWNLOAD: http://macumbista.net/?page_id=4690 Have fun at the the Pd-CON, folks! D. -- derek holzer noise.art.technology http://macumbista.net
