International Computer Music Conference
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Computer Music Conference (ICMC) is a yearly international conference for computer music researchers and composers. It is the annual conference of the International Computer Music Association (ICMA).
The theme for ICMC 2007 was "Immersed Music". In keeping with this theme, there was an underwater hydraulophone performance at the DGI-byen swimcenter Vandkulturhuset.
Each year there is a specific theme. For example, in 2007, the theme was "Immersed Music" and immersive media. ICMC 2007 took place in Copenhagen. On Tuesday August 28th, there was an "Underwater/Water Concert" at the DGI-byen swimcenter, in the hundred-metre DGI-byen pool, as well as the various other pools of the Vandkulturhuset.
This Immersed Music theme of ICMC 2007 explored important issues in musical instrument classification and immersion.
