ICMF

THE ISRAEL COMPUTERS AND MUSIC FORUM







The purpose of ICMF is to broaden musical language and musical understanding by taking advantage of a technological potential, and vice versa to contribute to scientific knowledge by research into music related issues. We hope to promote these goals by generating a permanent interaction between musicians and scientists interested in the field.





The functions:

@ to conduct multi-disciplinary research in computer science, engineering and acoustics in the field of music.

@ to encourage composers into producing new works of music using new technologies.

@ to promote computer-aided musicological research, and to serve as a means of exchange among those researchers.

@ to establish continuous relationships with the international musical and scientific communities.

@ to promote pedagogic efforts in the field.

@ to promote production of public events that bring to the public eye the results of computers and music activity and the evolution of musical thought.

We have also set up an ftp site for use of the list participants. It can be reached at cs.huji.ac.il under pub/il-cmf.
