Hi Thomas,
Apologies for chiming in late on this one. You might want to consider conducting your PhD at Birmingham Conservatoire in the UK.
http://www.conservatoire.bcu.ac.uk/research/centre-for-composition-and-perfo...
We have an established research centre, which has run the Integra project (www.integralive.org) since its inception, and has secured funding a second project phase. Our research specialisms are mainly focused on live interaction in performance. Being a Conservatoire, there is a diverse range of talented instrumental performers to collaborate with.
We have strong links with a number of other research centres including the Visualisation Research Unit (http://www.biad.uce.ac.uk/vru/index.php) at BIAD, so if you were interested in performance gesture analysis through advanced motion capture, there are facilities available for that.
HTH.
best,
Jamie

Hey all, since i'm planning to start a PhD in the near future i'm trying to
figure out which institution would fit best to my (currently rather
blurry) intentions. I'd like to research real-time interaction with electronic media
(emphasis on music), mostly from an artistic point of view. Keywords would be digital representation of musical structure
elements/intentions/ideas, interaction with other performers,
improvisation/anticipation, interfaces of the physical to the virtual
world, etc. Media and music/art theory would be important, media technology
should _not_ be the main focus. It would be great if the supervisor
is an active, renowned artist or specialized theoretician. Europe would be preferred, overseas possible nevertheless.any pointers? many thanks, Thomas
