Computer Music Multidisciplinary Research in Marseille


The 10th International Symposium on Computer Music Multidisciplinary Research (CMMR) Sound, Music and Motion will soon take place in Marseille, France (15-18 October 2013).

According to the conference website, this 10th anniversary evented is associated with “French laboratories and universities: Laboratoire de Mécanique et d'Acoustique (LMA), Institut des Sciences du Mouvement (ISM), Laboratoire de Neurosciences cognitives (LNC), Laboratoire d’Analyse, Topologie, Probabilités (LATP), Sciences, Arts et Techniques de l’Image et du Son (SATIS), and on the other hand renown music and dance associations: Ubris Studio, n+n corsino, that will take care of the artistic program of the conference. In addition the two industrial partners PSA Peugeot Citroën and Genesis are supporting and actively participating in the event. Participants will also be able to enjoy several additional events and expositions since Marseille is the European Capital of Culture 2013.”
According to the conference organizers, some central questions serve to guide this conference on the theme of “Sound, Music and Motion”:

  • How to identify perceptually relevant signal properties linked to motion?
  • How to define new timbre descriptors that characterize perceived motions?
  • What is the link between a performer's gestures, musical interpretation and perceived motion?
  • How to control perceived motion for sound design and sonification?
  • How is motion perceived in the presence of several modalities (vision, audition, kinesthetic)?

I look forward to participating in the conference and giving a presentation at the featured NNIMIPA event:
