MOBILE MUSIC TECHNOLOGY
FOURTH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP
AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS, 6-8 MAY 2007

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Submission deadline: 12th March 2007

Combining music and mobile technology promises exciting future  
developments in a rapidly emerging field. Devices such as mobile  
phones, Walkmans and iPods have already brought music to the ever- 
changing social and geographic locations of their users and reshaped  
their experience of the urban landscape. With new properties such as  
ad hoc networking, Internet connection, and context-awareness, mobile  
music technology offers countless new artistic, commercial and socio- 
cultural opportunities for music creation, listening and sharing. How  
can we push forward the already successful combination of music and  
mobile technology? What new forms of interaction with music lie  
ahead, as locative media and music use merge into new forms of  
everyday experiences?

Scheduling and registration fees will be coordinated with Futuresonic  
to allow participants to easily attend both events.
