Ubiquitous music is an interdisciplinary area of research that lies
at the intersection of music and computer science. Initially
evolving from the related concept of ubiquitous computing, today
ubiquitous music offers a paradigm for understanding how the
everyday presence of computers has led to highly diverse music
practices. As we move from desktop computers to mobile and
internet-based multi-platform systems, new ways to participate in
creative musical activities have radically changed the cultural and
social landscape of music composition and performance. This volume
explores how these new systems interact and how they may transform
our musical experiences. Emerging out of the work of the Ubiquitous
Music Group, an international research network established in 2007,
this volume provides a snapshot of the ecologically grounded
perspectives on ubiquitous music that share the concept of
ecosystem as a central theme. Covering theory, software and
hardware design, and applications in educational and artistic
settings, each chapter features in-depth descriptions of
exploratory and cutting-edge creative practices that expand our
understanding of music making by means of digital and analogue
technologies.
