ICMC 2008 Subject description: International Computer Music Conf. In Belfast |
 |
|
International Computer Music Conference, 24-29 August 2008, Belfast. Submission deadline is January 25.
Quote: | The 2008 conference explores notions of placement and displacement in the context of music practice. It provides an opportunity for the investigation of the interface between technologies which develop through international collaboration and the specificity of music cultures rooted in a place. The theme of the conference reflects current trends in the de-centralisation of music production and dissemination demonstrated by the increasing number of artist-run labels, podcasts, web archives and blogs. The ROOTS/ROUTES theme can be addressed through papers, compositions, installations and performances which explore the sense of place and context in relation to sound and technology. The conference organising committee welcomes submissions on the theme and on all traditional areas of computer music.
The conference also exposes the synergies between computer music and Irish Traditional Music through the creation of an ensemble composed of contemporary and traditional music specialists. This new type of ensemble is designed to explore the juxtaposition of two distinct performance practices and musical languages through the creation of new repertoire.

Some of the gurus of electro-music.com could probably coauthor a paper for this theme if one of them is inclined to travel to Belfast. Deadline is coming up, better start typing  _________________ When the stream is deep
