Participation du CIX au Symposium UPIC – Graphic Interfaces for Notation Conference, Fri–Sat, 28.–29.09.2018, ZKM (Karlsruhe)

The ZKM and Centre Iannis Xenakis (CIX) are organizing a two-day artistic-scientific symposium to explore current approaches and contemporary trends in the field of graphic notation for parameter generation for musical compositions.
Artists as well as musicologists will resituate the »UPIC« in both an historical and cultural context and also discuss the state-of-the-art in the field of electroacoustic sonifications of graphic notations in lectures, a panel discussion and a concert. The symposium will also serve to prepare a book publication planned for 2019 at the ZKM in cooperation with the Centre Iannis Xenakis.
The »UPIC – Graphic Interfaces for Notation Conference« is organized in cooperation with Centre Iannis Xenakis (CIX) within the framework of the »Interfaces« project.
