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

General pointer here.... Are there any articles you especially like? Track down recent articles on the subjects you want and make a list of researchers/artists who wrote them. Keep an open mind for extensions of their research, and you just might find your preference for topics in the process, too. It's sometimes a good idea to contact the person you want to be your advisor ahead of time, too--that way you can find out about availability, when admission happens, and talk about research.

I only know references, maybe UK isn't bad for music+technology (if you
like their music). Jonty Harrison, BEAST, SARC, Richard Barret, ... There
have been lots of developments and funding in the last years. Den Haag is
also a "classic". Don't know if the TU in Berlin or Folkwanghochschule in
Essen have a doctoral program.

Hi Thomas,
Bauhaus University in Weimar has a PhD in fine arts since this fall.
They are planning to accept 5 new PhD students each semester.

The UDK Berlin has a new PhD program in media arts. They started this autumn as far as I know.
There is a distance PhD programme in London at http://www.smartlab.uk.com/
And there is the MIT Media Lab of course.
Cheers, Jeannette.

Many thanks to all of you... your hints have given me some usable
blobs to start tracking.

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

I've just been trying unsuccessfully to get Olaf Matthes' netsend~/ netreceive~ working from OSX (PPC) to Windows, both on Pd.
On the OSX sending end, I get the following error in the Pd console. netsend~: connecting stream socket: Protocol not available (42)
I've made sure firewalls are all turned off on the Windows side, and
I'm fairly sure I've done this for the OSX end as well.
I can use the same machines and network to send successfully from Pd
Windows to Pd OSX.
Also I've successfully used netsend~/netreceive~ from Pd (Linux) ->
Max/MSP (OSX/Intel).
-can anyone help?
I can't find much information on this error online.
thanks Nick
