(Just for curiosity) Will there be presentations? Or will it be totally unformal? (uhm, I'd like to come). Best -a- On 8 Jun 2006, at 14:05, Taco Hoekwater wrote:

There will definately be presentations (on this user meeting that, incidentally, will take place on the 24th and 25th of March 2007, _not_ a day later ... :-/ ). That reminds me: we are hoping you'll be willing to do a presentation of your music typesetting :-)
(uhm, I'd like to come).
Please fill in the web form a.s.a.p. if you are already certain that you will definately attend. The registration officially closes on the 1st of march, but we have only limited room available so the meeting may be booked full before that date (I already have received the first two registrations). Greetings, taco
Ciao Taco,
That reminds me: we are hoping you'll be willing to do a presentation of your music typesetting :-)
I'm always thinking about writing down some notes. I think I can do it in July. Two days later I presented some considerations on algorithmic composition and automatic notation in our internal seminar, showing the ConTeXt+LilyPond connection. I will put soon some (125..) slides on line, but they're in Italian. (This was the abstract in English:
Algorithmic composition and musical notation: a report on the on-going project "I 6 nodi".
Apart from many ante litteram examples, algorithmic musical composition has been proposed and practiced extensively since the '50s. Actually, it seems that this kind of approach has found its natural realm more in the electroacoustic domain than in the acoustic (instrumental) one. This is probably due also to the bottleneck of musical notation: not by chance many contemporary musical experimentations have been devoted to notation (Valle 2003). While the synthesis of audio samples (as implied by electroacoustic music) is a very simple technical task, the generation of musical notation (the effective output of the composer's work) requires a much greater effort. The talk will present a on-going project for algorithmic generation of musical notation which uses different open source libraries and softwares. In particular, the discussed case is an extension of the GeoGraphy project (Valle - Lombardo 2003, Valle 2004): the goal is generating structures of musical notation for the piano series "I 6 nodi".

) I would have already subscribed to the meeting if it were not in the exact day (24) of the second birthday of my daughter....So, now I'm tinkering about a solution :-) Best -a- Andrea Valle DAMS - Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione Università degli Studi di Torino http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea andrea.valle@unito.it
Ummm... According to my calendar, in *2007*, March 25 is a Sunday and March 26 is a Monday while the meeting program talks about Sat-Sun. Looking at the meeting programme, maybe your intention is to have the meeting from Friday, March 23 to Sunday March 25, 2007? Just checking, it'll be a while before I get as far as to booking flights... Mari from Finland
OOPS! Thanks for noticing! It should be march 24 and 25! Taco (I can't believe I missed that :-() Mari Voipio wrote:
