The Electronic Arts Research Centre (CEIArtE) of the National University of Tres de Febrero, the San Martin Cultural Center and the “Galileo Galilei” Planetarium of Buenos Aires City invite you to participate in the 2nd international symposium Understanding Visual Music – UVM 2013.
Understanding Visual Music- UVM 2013 focuses on research-creation processes and multiple relations between art, science and new technologies that are key factors in obtaining creative results, when working with a universe composed of moving images and organized sound.Thus, 2D and 3D animation, electroacoustic music, image processing, sound design and the digital arts in general, can be intertwined with the most diverse techniques and technologies, and even with unexpected areas of science, in generating the complex blending supporting the so-called “visual music”. Understanding Visual Music was born from the idea of knowing better the conceptual roots of this art. The first edition of UVM was held in Montreal, 2011.
The symposium activities will take place on August 8th and 9th at the San Martin Cultural Center of Buenos Aires and will include sessions with paper presentations and visual music concerts. Additionally, the Planetarium of Buenos Aires will be also hosting a visual music concert on friday the 9th, at 20:00hs.
