Ways Ahead
First International Csound Conference
September 30 - October 2 2011, HMTM Hannover, Germany
Incontri, the Institute for new music at the University of Music, Drama
and Media Hannover, is proud to host the first International
Csound Conference. Csound, more than 25 years after its creation, has
changed in many ways during the years, and so has the situation of
computer music in general. What is the role of Csound in current
electronic music practice, teaching and learning? What are the
challenges, potentials, and perspectives of the ways ahead? This meeting
looks to provide discussion between developers and users, and to show
aspects of the Csound Language in papers, workshops, installations, and
a concert.
CALL FOR PAPERS
As this conference is mainly focused on the present situation and
further development of Csound, papers which discuss this topic in regard
to the technology, the community, the documentation or the ways of
learning, are mostly welcome. But you are also encouraged to send any
paper which deals with any Csound related content.
Papers should be about 4-8 pages. Please use the templates found here:
