=============
electro-music 2006(TM) is a three day international conference/music
festival to be held at the Cheltenham Art Center in Philadelphia, June 2
- 4, 2006. The program will include lectures, demos, jam sessions, and
concerts.
The scope of this festival is very broad, covering all aspects of
electro-music, experimental electronic music, including circuit bending,
computer music, electro-jazz, modular synthesis, musique concrete,
improvisation, noodles (generative music, automatic and algorithmic
composition), multi-media, visual art and much more. The focus will be
on participant involvement, sharing, community development, audience
education, and great music.
Electro-music.com is an international community of composers and
musicians who share a passion for electro-music. The community exists to
create its own critical mass; to enable its members to develop music on
their own terms. Electro-music is new music; still undefined; happening
all over our planet. Electro-music is the natural result of two
techno/social trends: the availability of low-cost powerful electronic
music technology, and the communication revolution enabled by the
internet. Electro-music is not defined by a particular style or sound,
but by its primary motivation; the joy of creation, and the love of
electronic sounds; it crosses many genres. For more information visit
the event's web site.

The Cheltenham Art Center has two galleries and a performance hall that
will be available for three days. (see:

Participation can consist of lectures, talks, tutorials, demos,
performances, robotic sculpture, presentations, concerts, automatic
music, or other appropriate expression. If you would like to contribute

electro-music 2006 is more of a meeting or a community experience than a
show. As such, all of the participants and performers share in the
expenses. Thus, in order to make the experience as fulfilling as
possible, we expect everyone to register and pay for the full three days
of the event. The deadline for submissions is February 28, 2006. We will
respond to all entrants by March 15, 2006, or before.
