Music technology (Crucible theme)

Crucible research encompasses explorations of novel performance interfaces, notations and live music programming, in addition to the fundamental acoustics of musical instruments and music perception. Laptop music performers (Nick Collins), music technology developers (Chris Nash) and electro-acoustic composers (Alejandro Viñao) are working on the boundary of computer science and music, usually in collaboration with the Cambridge Centre for Music and Science.

• Collaborative performance technology
• Improcess
• Composer in residence - Alejandro Viñao
• Composer in residence - Cheryl Frances-Hoad
