MUME 2018 Concert - CALL FOR WORKS

===================


Overview


Creators of musically metacreative systems are invited to submit works for a concert of musical metacreation, as part of the Ninth International Conference on Computational Creativity, at University of Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain. 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.


All up-to-date information can be found here.


Types of Work


Any work related to MuMe that can be presented in a performance context will be considered. This includes:


Submission Process


Please submit a two page A4-portrait PDF describing your work before the submission deadline. Email your submission to chairs@musicalmetacreation.org.Submissions should not be anonymised. Your submission should:

* 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


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 and sound checks will be on the Sunday 24th June unless otherwise arranged.
