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!
