INTER/actions: Symposium on Interactive Electronic Music

Karlheinz Essl © 2011 by Markus RössleApril 10-12
Bangor University School of Music

In collaboration with Electroacoustic Wales, Risk of Shock, GEMINi (Gestural Music Interaction) Research Group and Bangor Sound City.

Keynote presenter and composer: Karlheinz Essl, Vienna

INTER/actions will be a three-day symposium and mini-festival focusing on performance and interaction in electronic music. We aim to provide an environment to exchange ideas and instigate collaborations for composers, performers, sound artists and music technologists interested in the role of the performer in electronic music, whether in the traditional sense, or audience-as-performer.
