Call for Music: ICMC 2009
http://www.icmc2009.org/music
The Schulich School of Music of McGill University, in association with
the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and
Technology (CIRMMT), will host the International Computer Music
Conference (ICMC) in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) from 16 – 21 August
2009. We invite the submission of electroacoustic music, video and
installation works that reflect the diversity of the field of
computer-enhanced sonic art. Special emphasis is put on interactive
and intermodal forms. Opportunities exist to combine digital resources
with a variety of instrumental ensembles and soloists as detailed
below, but specialized performance proposals are also welcome.
Further details are available below and at the conference website
(www.icmc2009.org).
The online submission system will open on 5 January 2009.
Key Dates for Submissions:
– 5 January 2009: Music Submission Site Open
– 30 January 2009: Music Submission Deadline
– 15 April 2009: Music Decision Notification
– 15 May 2009: Final Music Deadline
Submission Types:
Composers should submit MP3-formatted audio files or MP4-formatted
video files with all author information removed for blind review.
Further details, including scores and technical requirements, will be
uploaded to the online submission system as well. Submission types can
include:
– Acousmatic works (stereo and multi-channel)
– Mixed works for live performer(s) and electronics
– Works for digital musical instruments
– Works involving video
– Installations
Soloists will be available for all standard orchestra instruments and
small ensemble formats. Video projection facilities will be present at
all performance venues. Installations will primarily be set up in
CIRMMT labs, the MMR, or in the Tanna Schulich Foyer (see the Venues
tab for further information).
These submissions will be subject to blind review by an international
panel. The composer must pay the conference registration fee for a
selected work to be programmed. Attendance by the composer is highly
encouraged but not absolutely required. However, the performance may
be cancelled if any of the following occur: 1. the music and necessary
performance materials (score, software, …) are not submitted by the
“Final Music” deadline; 2. associated software does not function
properly; or 3. the documentation is not complete enough to allow the
piece to be properly rehearsed and performed.
Rehearsals:
Rehearsals for performances will be scheduled in advance and composers
are encouraged to be present at the dress rehearsal a day or two
before the performance.
