JIM 2024, the Journ\u00e9es d’Informatique Musicale 2024<\/strong><\/a>, took place 6-8 May 2024 in Marseille, France, at La Friche and at the CNRS Aiguier Campus. This annual meeting of the Association Francophone d’Informatique Musicale (AFIM) brings together researchers, developers and other musical denizens for whom computing is central to the dissemination, creation, interpretation, and pedagogy of their work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year’s conference celebrates Jean-Claude Risset<\/strong>‘s legacy in sound synthesis, live electronics and the use of the Disklavier for musical creation. Other themes were computational musicology (the intersection of music theory, computer science, data analysis to interpret musical structures using algorithms and statistics), empirical musicology (bridging the gap between subjective musical experience and objective analysis of musical phenomena using methods from psychology, statistics, acoustics, computer science), and immersion, multimodality, virtual reality for multisensory interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To internationalise the conference, this year’s JIM keynotes<\/a> were Elaine Chew (King’s College London, UK), David Meredith (Aalborg University, Denmark), Dave de Roure (Oxford University, UK), and Marco Stroppa (Hochschule f\u00fcr Musik und Darstellende Kunst Stuttgart).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the spirit of Disklavier research pioneered by Risset, Elaine integrated these demos into her keynote (videos courtesy of Charles de Paiva Santana): <\/p>\n\n\n\n
