MUME 2019 - EXTENDED DEADLINE: MARCH 24,  2019

===================

======================

3rd CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

======================

((( MUME 2019 )))

The 7th International Workshop on Musical Metacreation

http://musicalmetacreation.org

June 17-18, 2019, Charlotte, North Carolina

MUME 2019 is to be held at the University of North Carolina Charlotte in
conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Computational
Creativity, ICCC 2019 (http://computationalcreativity.net/iccc2019).

=== Important Dates ===

EXTENDED Workshop submission deadline: March 24, 2019

Notification date: April 28, 2019

Camera-ready version: May 19, 2019

Workshop dates: June 17-18, 2019

======================

Metacreation applies tools and techniques from artificial intelligence,
artificial life, and machine learning, themselves often inspired by
cognitive and natural science, for creative tasks. Musical Metacreation
studies the design and use of these generative tools and theories for music
making: discovery and exploration of novel musical styles and content,
collaboration between human performers and creative software “partners”,
and design of systems in gaming and entertainment that dynamically generate
or modify music.

MUME intends to bring together artists, practitioners, and researchers
interested in developing systems that autonomously (or interactively)
recognize, learn, represent, compose, generate, complete, accompany, or
interpret music. As such, we welcome contributions to the theory or
practice of generative music systems and their applications in new media,
digital art, and entertainment at large.

Topics

===========================

We encourage paper and demo submissions on MUME-related topics, including
the following:

-- Models, Representation and Algorithms for MUME

---- Novel representations of musical information

---- Advances or applications of AI, machine learning, and statistical
techniques for generative music

---- Advances of A-Life, evolutionary computing or agent and multi-agent
based systems for generative music

---- Computational models of human musical creativity

-- Systems and Applications of MUME

---- Systems for autonomous or interactive music composition

---- Systems for automatic generation of expressive musical interpretation

---- Systems for learning or modeling music style and structure

---- Systems for intelligently remixing or recombining musical material

---- Online musical systems (i.e. systems with a real-time element)

---- Adaptive and generative music in video games

---- Generative systems in sound synthesis, or automatic synthesizer design

---- Techniques and systems for supporting human musical creativity

---- Emerging musical styles and approaches to music production and
performance involving the use of AI systems

---- Applications of musical metacreation for digital entertainment: sound
design, soundtracks, interactive art, etc.

-- Evaluation of MUME

---- Methodologies for qualitative or quantitative evaluation of MUME
systems

---- Studies reporting on the evaluation of MUME

---- Socio-economical Impact of MUME

---- Philosophical implication of MUME

---- Authorship and legal implications of MUME

Submission Format and Requirements

=================================

Please make submissions via the EasyChair system at:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mume2019

The workshop is a day and a half event that includes:

-Presentations of FULL TECHNICAL PAPERS (8 pages maximum)

-Presentations of POSITION PAPERS and WORK-IN-PROGRESS PAPERS (5 pages
maximum)

-Presentations of DEMONSTRATIONS (3 pages maximum) which present outputs of
systems (working live or offline).

All papers should be submitted as complete works. Demo systems should be
tested and working by the time of submission, rather than be speculative.
We encourage audio and video material to accompany and illustrate the
papers (especially for demos). We ask that authors arrange for their web
hosting of audio and video files, and give URL links to all such files
within the text of the submitted paper.

Submissions do not have to be anonymized, as we use single-blind reviewing.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least three program committee
members.



Workshop papers will be published as MUME 2019 Proceedings and will be
archived with an ISBN number. Please use the updated MuMe paper template to
format your paper. Also please feel free to edit the licence entry (at the
bottom left of the first page of the new template). We created a new MUME
2019 template based on AAAI template. The MUME 2019 latex and Word template
is available at:

http://musicalmetacreation.org/buddydrive/file/templates_mume2019/

Submission should be uploaded using MUME 2019 EasyChair portal:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mume2019

For complete details on attendance, submissions and formatting, please
visit the workshop website: <http://www.musicalmetacreation.org>

Presentation and Multimedia Equipment:

==========================================

We will provide a video projection system as well as a stereo audio system
for use by presenters at the venue. Additional equipment required for
presentations and demonstrations should be supplied by the presenters.
Contact the Workshop Chair to discuss any special equipment and setup
needs/concerns.

Attendance

=======================================

It is expected that at least one author of each accepted submission will
attend the workshop to present their contribution. We also welcome those
who would like to attend the workshop without presenting. Workshop
registration will be available through the ICCC 2019 conference system.
