May 16 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Two studio reports will be presented:
Hefang Ma, Jingyu Luo, Paul Francis, Mara Helmuth, Sangbong Nam and Wei-Huai Chen: “Studio Report: Center for Computer Music 026″
The Center for Computer Music continues to function as an active site for research, composition, performance, and pedagogy in computer music. During the current period, research at the Center has focused on algorithmic and AI-assisted composition systems, real-time sonification and data-driven sound synthesis, beat tracking and performance synchronization, and music programming environments developed by faculty and students. These projects emphasize structured workflows, probabilistic processes, real-time analysis, and their application with- in compositional and interactive performance contexts. Creative output includes electroacoustic works, live electronics, spatialized sound, and multimedia performances presented at CCM as well as at national and international venues.
Pedro Rebelo and Craig Jackson: “SARC Studio Report”
We outline recent developments at SARC, Queen’s University Belfast following its re-formation on the occasion of its 20th anniversary as SARC: Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Sound and Music. This transition prompted a re-evaluation of research scope alongside significant investment in technologies and facilities. This studio report summarises the rationale for these changes and presents current state-of-the-art facilities supporting research in immersive sound, composition, performance, improvisation, inclusive music making, instrument and interaction design, virtual acoustic instruments, ecological sound, participatory practice, and music scholarship.
