Organised Sound

Aims & Scope

Organised Sound is a fully peer-reviewed scholarly journal focusing on the rapidly developing methods and issues arising from the use of contemporary technology in fields such as multimedia, performance art, sound sculpture and electroacoustic composition.

It is a forum for music scholars, composers, performers, computer specialists, mathematicians and engineers to share the results of their research as they affect musical issues.

Young researchers will be particularly encouraged.
