The International Summer School in Systematic Musicology (ISSSM2010) will take place in Jyväskylä, starting on the 11th of August, 2010. The theme of the Summer School is Beauty in Music - Musical Aesthetics Revisited and it focuses on the most advanced and up-to-date topics of musicology through an interactive and cooperative learning approach.

Title: Musical Forces and Musical Analysis
Professor Steve Larson , University of Oregon
On the Development of an Auditory Virtual Environment for Musical Applications
In the last few decades, the development of audio reproduction and spatialization techniques greatly benefits from composers whose pioneering work still inspires researchers to refine spatial audio systems (e.g. Stockhausen, Chowning, Boulez). However, novel spatialization tools developed by engineers and researchers hardly find their way from the developers' labs into the composition studios. To make future developments more applicable, researchers have to understand this current lack of coherence between development and artistic use.
In this talk, first, results of a quantitative study are presented and shows how composers use spatialization, what spatial aspects are essential and what functionalities spatial audio systems should strive to include or improve. Secondly, ViMiC (Virtual Microphone Control), a novel spatial rendering software is presented. ViMiC provides a computer-generated virtual environment for the purpose of creating spatial sounds scenes. Apart from positioning sound sources, other spatial aspects, such as source width, distance, and room impression, can be created in real-time, particularly for concert situations and site-specific immersive installations.
Postdoctoral researcher Alexander Refsum Jensenius will hold an open lecture during the annual "Faglig-pedagogisk dag" at University of Oslo.
Tittel: Musikk og bevegelse
Sammendrag: Musikk oppstår som bevegelse hos musikeren, og musikk skaper bevegelse hos den som lytter. Selv om de fleste er enige om at kropp og bevegelse er en naturlig, og essensiell, del av musikkopplevelsen, har det vært påfallende lite fokus på musikkrelaterte bevegelser i undervisning og forskning. Forelesningen vil gi en helhetlig presentasjon av hvordan vi kan forstå og studere musikkrelaterte bevegelser.

Assoc. Professor Marcelo M. Wanderley from McGill University in Montreal, Canada will hold a guest lecture on the topic Design and Evaluation of New Interfaces for Musical Expression.
PhD students Marc Thompson & Birgitta Burger from the University of Jyväskylä will demonstrate the MoCap Toolboxfor Matlab.
The MoCap Toolbox is a Matlab® toolbox that contains functions for the analysis and visualization of motion capture data. It supports the generic .c3d file format, the .tsv data format produced by the Qualisys ProReflex system, and the .wii format produced by the WiiDataCapture software.
As preparations for the Motion Capture Workshop next week, we will be giving an introduction to using the NaturalPoint Optitrack system that is currently set up in the fourMs Lab.
A workshop on hyperimprovisation, with international and national guests.
Time: onsdag 8. oktober kl 10.00 - 12.00

Title: The laptop as instrument
Lecturer: Dan Trueman, Princeton University
Abstract: This talk presents one approach to the art and technology of performing music with digital computers - designing, implementing, evaluating, and iteratively developing new interfaces for the real-time expressive control of digital signal processing algorithms. The discussion will include presentations of my own musical instruments, the exploration of new performance techniques they bring about, and the musical and technological lessons learned during an evolutionary journey into a modern perspective on one of mankind"s oldest forms of art.
A workshop on basic issues of gesture definitions and gesture capture/representation.
Musikkteknologidagene arrangeres av Institutt for musikkvitenskap (UiO) og NoTAM, i tilknytning til ULTIMA.
