Visit to Graz

lamberto coccioli — Sun, 25 Mar 2007 20:08:53 +0000

Two days in Graz, the second town in Austria, to meet Gerhard Eckel, who works as a research professor at IEM, the Institut für Elektronische Musik und Akustik at the Kunst Universität, and discuss their participation to the Integra project. We seemed to understand each other very well, and our conversations progressed with – I should hope – mutual pleasure. Gerhard is the perfect host: apart from introducing me to IEM’s facilities and illustrating all the activities taking place there, on the night of my arrival he invited me to Iohan, a trendy restaurant in the centre of the city with a very original, minimal decor and fantastic Austrian/International cuisine.

I’m looking forward to Gerhard’s contribution to Integra, as I am sure that he will bring a very sharp and personal angle to the project. We will probably meet again at the end of May, in occasion of the Integra scientific group meeting in Belfast.

We have just submitted to the Leverhulme Trust a funding application for a 5-year research plan at UCE Birmingham Conservatoire. Together with Jamie Bullock we have identified usability and sustainability as the key areas of development in the field of live electroacoustic music research in the foreseeable future.

The musicSpace project

Richard Polfreman and mc schraefel from the University of Southampton have invited us to take part in musicSpace, a large project application submitted to AHRC/EPSRC. The aim of musicSpace is to develop a web-based semantic browser for music-related data. One of the areas of the project is electroacoustic music. If funded, musicSpace could provide a very powerful tool for researchers and the public at large, providing in one single location a fine-tuned search engine for music data and meta-data. We are eagerly waiting for confirmation of the funding!
