Innovative Tools and Methods for Teaching Music and Signal Processing

Digital technologies offer new means of expression in the field of music
allowing us to explore areas of unlimited and unprecedented sound and
expressiveness.

It is, therefore, important to train future generations regarding these tools
from experimental and multidisciplinary perspectives to ensure that musical
creation will evolve and fully exploit the possibilities these technologies
offer.

With this in mind, we have collected for this book fifteen texts written by
researchers, teachers, musicians, composers and Ph.D. students of various
backgrounds, each having an innovative and individual practice of teaching
music or signal processing.

The book was published following a conference held on 2 and 3 November, 2015
at the University of Saint-Etienne, organized by the CIEREC (Interdisciplinary
Center for Studies and Research on Contemporary Expression) in partnership
with GRAME. It has been partially funded by the FEEVER project [ANR-13-
BS02-0008] supported by the Agence nationale pour la recherche
