Summary on Grant Application Form
A musical acoustics research netwrok is proposed. The aim is to provide opportunities for meetings between scientists working in musical acoustics and musical technology, creative performers and composers, and manufacturers of musical instruments. The network will foster links between university work and the music industry. It will allow academics in the new universities, teaching vocationally-oriented courses in music technology, to exchange ideas with those working on related problems and courses in more traditional disciplines. it will allow performers on traditional acoustical instruments to meet those from the rapidly-developing electronic sector, and also the scientific community which lies behind both types of musical activity. It will promote collaborative projects between the key disciplines of physical science, electronic engineering and computer science, psycology, music theory and ethnomusicology, education and therapeutics.
