October 19-23, 2020 organized and hosted virtually by the Royal 
Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden

The 2020 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity brings together for the 
first time two overlapping research forums: The Computer Simulation of 
Music Creativity conference (est. 2016) 
<https://csmc2018.wordpress.com/>, and The International Workshop on 
Musical Metacreation (est. 2012) <http://musicalmetacreation.org/>. The 
principal goal is to bring together scholars and artists interested in 
the virtual emulation of musical creativity and its use for music 
creation, and to provide an interdisciplinary platform to promote, 
present and discuss their work in scientific and artistic contexts.

The 2020 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity will consist of 
synchronous and asynchronous events. The five-day program will feature 
tutorials, research paper presentations, discussion panels, an online 
exhibition, nine invited spotlight presentations and two keynotes 
delivered by Professor Emeritus Dr. Johan Sundberg (Speech, Music and 
Hearing, KTH)

Dr. Alice Eldridge (Music, Sussex University, UK)
