    CMMR 2005 - PLAY!

    Pisa, Italy, September 26-28, 2005

    BACKGROUND

    The field of computer music is interdisciplinary by nature and closely related to a number of computer science and engineering areas such as information retrieval, programming, human computer interaction, digital libraries, hypermedia, artificial intelligence, acoustics, signal processing, etc...

    In this year's CMMR we would like to emphasize on the human interaction in music, simply the PLAY, meaning that papers related to sound modeling, real-time interaction, interactive music, perception and cognition are particularly welcome together with the usual themes related to the traditional topics of the CMMR conference.

    CMMR 2005 invites researchers, educators, composers, performers, and others with an interest in important aspects of computer music (including modeling, retrieval, analysis, and synthesis) to come join us for a unique event.

    TOPICS

    Original contributions on the following (and other relevant) topics are encouraged:
     
    • infrastructures for music
    •       - music digital libraries modeling
    •       - representation and language modeling

    •       - metadata
    •       - standards
    •       - protocols
    •       - query languages
    •       - advanced information retrieval
    • structuring of music data
    •       - hypermedia
    •       - structural computing

    FORMAT

    The symposium will be structured in a traditional manner with paper presentations. However, there will also be scheduled time for presentation of computer musical compositions.

    SUBMISSIONS

    Submissions may have any of the following forms:
     
    • Full paper (7 - 20 pages)
    • Short paper (3 - 5 pages)

    All papers will be reviewed by the program committee. It is planned to publish accepted papers after the symposium as post-event proceedings in the Springer Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Series.
