> ================Call for Music==================
> SMC2011 invites submissions of musical works for the three concerts
> planned for the conference music program:
> 1.[Curator: Claudio Ambrosini] This concert features live electronic
> works that explore novel techniques for the performance with
> traditional acoustic instruments in relation to the possibilities
> of interaction and live processing. We particularly encourage works
> for acoustic instruments and electronics that link musical gesture
> to digital processing, including the spatial dimension.
> 2.[Curator: Ron Kuivila] This concert features works that explore the
> correlations and anticorrelations of digital and analog electronic
> music systems. We particularly encourage works that define digital
> models of analog live electronic systems and "bent" electronic
> instruments, build hybrid systems that combine and interconnect
> analog and digital systems, or provide entirely new approaches to
> analog circuitry.
> 3.[Curator: Marek Chołoniewski] This concert features works that
> reinvent for the 3rd millenium the traditional model of the
> orchestra. We particularly encourage submissions of works using
> laptops as main instruments for the production, reproduction and
> manipulation of sound, possibly with the addition of other
> interactive technologies, as well as soloists or small acoustic
> ensembles.
