Forwarded because I care!

=============
electro-music 2006(TM) is a three day international conference/music 
festival to be held at the Cheltenham Art Center in Philadelphia, June 2 
- 4, 2006. The program will include lectures, demos, jam sessions, and 
concerts.

The scope of this festival is very broad, covering all aspects of 
electro-music, experimental electronic music, including circuit bending, 
computer music, electro-jazz, modular synthesis, musique concrete, 
improvisation, noodles (generative music, automatic and algorithmic 
composition), multi-media, visual art and much more. The focus will be 
on participant involvement, sharing, community development, audience 
education, and great music.

Electro-music.com is an international community of composers and 
musicians who share a passion for electro-music. The community exists to 
create its own critical mass; to enable its members to develop music on 
their own terms. Electro-music is new music; still undefined; happening 
all over our planet. Electro-music is the natural result of two 
techno/social trends: the availability of low-cost powerful electronic 
music technology, and the communication revolution enabled by the 
internet. Electro-music is not defined by a particular style or sound, 
but by its primary motivation; the joy of creation, and the love of 
electronic sounds; it crosses many genres. For more information visit 
the event's web site.

The Cheltenham Art Center has two galleries and a performance hall that 
will be available for three days. (see: 
<http://electro-music.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4390>).

Participation can consist of lectures, talks, tutorials, demos, 
performances, robotic sculpture, presentations, concerts, automatic 
music, or other appropriate expression. If you would like to contribute 
to electro-music 2006 then send a description of what you would like to 
do to <event@electro-music.com>. Please provide links or attachments 
(images or mp3 files) that illustrate what you would do at the event.

We have prepared the following guideline documents:
      For speakers - <http://event.electro-music.com/event.php?t=4698>

electro-music 2006 is more of a meeting or a community experience than a 
show. As such, all of the participants and performers share in the 
expenses. Thus, in order to make the experience as fulfilling as 
possible, we expect everyone to register and pay for the full three days 
of the event. The deadline for submissions is February 28, 2006. We will 
respond to all entrants by March 15, 2006, or before.
