About the project
NordicSMC brings together a group of internationally leading sound and music computing researchers from all five Nordic countries, from Aalborg University, Aalto University, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, University of Iceland, and the University of Oslo.
The constellation is unique because it covers the field of sound and music from the «soft» to the «hard», including the arts and humanities, the social and natural sciences, and a high level of technological competency.
Objectives
NordicSMC provides a common vision and common research guidelines in the field of Sound and Music Computing research. The network will have the following overall outcomes:
- consolidation of the Nordic sound and music research domain;
- increase Nordic competitiveness in the sound and music research domain in the international context;
- consolidation of sound and music research agendas in specific sub-domains that are considered of societal importance (such as auditory displays, sound and music interaction, musical information retrieval, and data mining in large (musical) sound collections)
The network will produce scientific results, foster collaborations in research and education among the partners, and contribute to innovation and entrepreneurship in related industries.
