MOBILE MUSIC TECHNOLOGY

FIRST INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP
VIKTORIA INSTITUTE, GÖTEBORG, SWEDEN, JUNE 10-11, 2004

http://www.viktoria.se/fal/events/mobilemusic2004/

In the late 1970's, the Walkman liberated recorded music - it allowed 
you to carry the listening room with you. Today, iPods and mobile 
phones allow new forms of private and social music experiences. What 
are the trends in mobile music technology? What kinds of new modes of 
musical interaction are becoming possible? Will peer-to-peer sharing 
and portable MP3 players destroy the music business - or will new 
technology let artists reach more people than ever before?

This event is an opportunity to learn more about the emerging forms of 
mobile music technology. The workshop will include speakers 
representing some of the world's most innovative approaches to mobile 
music, including new technologies for music listening, creation and 
sharing. There will be plenty of opportunities for attendees to meet 
and work creatively together on these issues. You are also invited to 
present your own work in a poster session.

Don't miss this chance to help shape the mobile music landscape of the 
future!

POSTER DEADLINE MAY 31

We invite you to contribute posters that document your work or ideas in 
mobile music technology. We will print a compendium of all posters and 
arrange a poster presentation session where attendees can discuss the 
work with authors. Poster presenters are also encouraged to bring a 
demonstration to complement the poster.

Potential poster topics include implemented or projected mobile music 
systems, legal issues, enabling technology, user studies, ethnographic 
fieldwork, interface design, social implications, and other areas 
relevant to mobile music.

Take advantage of this chance to share your knowledge with the emerging 
Mobile Music community!
