Introduction and Objectives

The purpose of this Course and Workshop is to present new emerging technologies in the field of digital audio and music processing. In this first edition the focus will be on two new aspects: 3D audio technologies and the emergence of interactive tools to create music experiences.

Audio & Music Processing Course

The course is divided in three modules.

The first module is devoted to the basic principles of audio and music processing. The goal of this session is to introduce the basic concepts from audio and music processing and explore their application in the music industry.

The second module is composed of different demos of 3D audio. In the last years, new immersive 3D audio technologies have appeared in the Media Industry (cinema, television, and videogames). The attendants will enjoy the last advances in 3D audio by listening different demos in a specially designed 3D room.

The third module is an introduction to the mobile application Reactable Mobile, based on their interactive music creation instrument Reactable Live! Interactive instruments are designed to create the music of today and tomorrow.

Audio & Music Processing Workshop

The Workshop will take place in the morning of June 8th. The workshop will be organized as a series of presentations by prestigious speakers in the field, followed by a round table discussion with the workshop's participants.

The aim of the workshop is to foster and stimulate the interchange of ideas about the future of audio and music processing technologies.
