The main theme of the Conference is “Music Technology meets Philosophy: From Digital Echos to Virtual Ethos”. We invite researchers in music and sound computing, composers, musicologists and philosophers for a fruitful dialogue on related topics in order to redefine the past, present and future of computer music and sound computing.

The ICMC|SMC|2014 joint Conference will include lectures, special sessions, demonstrations, indoors & outdoors concerts, installations and workshops as well as a summer school, given in various places ranging from concert halls and university auditoria to museum lobbies and archaeological sites.

The ICMC|SMC|2014 invite submission for:
· papers and posters involving aesthetic, compositional, educational, musicological, scientific, and technological aspects of sound and music computing as well as digital audio,
· music works that will be performed in the frame of the Conference,
· studio reports, demonstrations and workshops.
