MUME-WE 2013 - 2013 Musical Metacreation Weekend

Continuously running generative installations, ranging from full artworks to high-quality demos. No budget is available for the setup of installations, but we can provide computers, speakers and projectors, as well as a number of spaces to present works. This includes a computer lab (Macintosh), allowing for the presentation of distributed works.
Audio-Visual Documentation
Recordings of music-generating systems with additional film content. Producers of algorithmically generated music are invited to submit fixed works in video format, for presentation in a "continuous listening room" at the event, but also later on the web. The work should take the following form: the audio should be a standalone, professionally produced stereo track of up to 15 minutes in length. The video should be an additional layer synched to the audio, strictly for the purpose of describing and explaining the work. This could be a slideshow, an informative visualisation of the music or a film with subtitles. The video should be treated strictly as an explanatory element for listeners to gain a detailed understanding of the system, and not as an artistic element, whereas the audio should be considered the opposite.
Submission format: minimum requirements, HD 1920x1080 Quicktime Movie, with 44.1Khz, 16-bit stereo audio.
Panel Sessions
Panel sessions will be by invite from amongst participating artists. Please indicate if you would be interested in participating in a panel session. Non-attendees may join in over Skype.
Papers
Although MuMe also exists as a conference workshop, the MuMe Weekend will not have a paper track. However, the MuMe weekend will be flanked by three conferences that will be highly relevant to participants (see below). Please note that the MuMe committee is not formally connected to these conferences and has no influence on paper acceptance.
Submission Process
Please use the following online form for submission.
Submissions will pass through a peer-review process and a curatorial panel process. The ultimate decision will lie with the organising committee and guest curators. Selection will be based on: relevance to the MuMe themes, technical quality, artistic quality, practicality (in terms of tech requirements etc.).
Please note that contributors are not required to attend the event.
