Summer School in Sound and Music Computing
Pompeu Fabra University
Barcelona, Spain
July 24-28, 2006
http://www.iua.upf.es/mtg/sssmc2006/-------------------------------------------------------------
This Summer School is organized by the S2S² project (http://
www.s2s2.org) and the Music Technology Group (
http://www.iua.upf.es/mtg/) of the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, with the goal to
promote interdisciplinary education and research in the field of
Sound and Music Computing. The School is aimed at graduate students
working on their Master or PhD thesis, but it is open to any person
carrying out research in this field.
Teachers: Nicola Bernardini (Conservatory of Padova), Antonio Camurri
(University of Genova), Henkjan Honing (University of Amsterdam),
Marc Leman (University of Ghent), Xavier Serra (Pompeu Fabra
University), Giovanni De Poli (University of Padova), Davide
Rocchesso (University of Verona), Vesa Valimaki (Helsinki University
of Technology), Bill Verplank (Stanford University)
Academic Program:
- 6 hours of lectures by Bill Verplank on Interface Design and 6
hours of lectures by Henkjan Honing on Music Cognition.
- 9 hours of presentations by the participating students and
discussions on their research work.
- 20 hours of presentations and discussions related to the S2S² Sound
and Music Computing Roadmap.
The lectures are designed to be of interest to any graduate student
or researcher in the field of Sound and Music Computing. The topics
chosen for this year are Interface Design and Music Cognition;
relevant topics in our research fields which have particular
methodologies and research strategies. The lectures will present
these particular methodologies and their application in Music related
problems.
All the participating students will give short presentations on their
current research. The emphasis will be given to methodological and
context issues. Thus each presentation should emphasize the
methodological approach chosen and the scientific, technological and
industrial context of the research. The discussions will give feed
back to the students that should be useful for the continuation of
their research.
The main topic of the summer school will be the Roadmap on Sound and
Music Computing (
http://www.s2s2.org/content/view/106/125/) that is
being written as part of the S2S² project. There will be special
lectures by invited experts and discussions on two major parts of the
roadmap, the industrial and the cultural contexts of the field. In
particular the focus will be given to the academic research and both
its relationship with the industrial exploitation and its use in
contemporary music production. The resulting discussions will
contribute to the roadmap.
