ICMC 2012
Since 1974 the International Computer Music Conference has been the
major international forum for the presentation of the full range of
outcomes from technical and musical research, both musical and
theoretical, related to the use of computers in music. This annual
conference regularly travels the globe, with recent conferences in the
Americas, Europe and Asia. This year we welcome the conference to
Slovenia for the first time.
The 2012 International Computer Music Conference will be held in
Ljubljana, Slovenia. It is organized by IRZU - the Institute for Sonic
Arts Research and supported by the Faculty of Computer and Information
Science as well as the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana. IRZU
is a young non government organization, based on an interdisciplinary
concept and is conducting artistic productions in the field of
electro-acoustic music / inter-media performances and installations, as
well as audio technology research and educational activities. The ICMC
2012 will be held in cllaboration with our annual sonic arts festival
EarZoom which is becoming a referential international platform for
discussing the latest developments within audio technology research
well as critical and conceptual approaches in sonic arts practices.
The conference welcomes the submission of a wide range of papers and
music, covering all aspects of technical, creative and aesthetic issues
around the use of computers in music. The theme of the 2012 conference
is "Non-Cochlear Sound", which can be understood as an analogy to the
Duchampian notion of non-retinal art. The aim is to investigate the
potential of sound as a medium and further, the potentials of music in
conjunction with new technologies to create new possibilities of
artistic expression, which could create a closer relation to language
and consequentially, enable generation of meaning and production of
knowledge. Submissions emphasizing this theme are particularly welcomed
and, like in the recent years, ICMC 2012 will again include a piece
plus paper category in which it will be possible for such links to be
made explicit. The conference will also be programmed to juxtapose
paper sessions on particular topics with concerts in which related
ideas inform musical works.
