Music Tech Fest (MTF) is a three-day arts festival and creative space where participants share and "develop new formats of musical performance and expression." It is billed as the 'festival of music ideas'. MTF presents technological innovations and artistic experimentation, performance, new inventions, commercial applications, and academic research. Music Tech Fest events are free to the public, streamed live online, and videos of individual presentations are made available on YouTube. The festival runs a 24-hour weekend hackathon and an academic symposium known as the 'afterparty' on the Monday following the weekend's event. At the Boston afterparty, participants collaborated on the composition of a ''Manifesto for the Future of Music Technology Research''.〔(Manifesto for the Future of Music Technology Research ).〕 ==History== Music Tech Fest began as result of the (Roadmap for Music Information Research ) (MIReS),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MIReS - >>> the future of music tech )〕 a European FP7 project run by seven European research centers: Music Technology Group at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona; (Stromatolite ); OFAI, Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence, Vienna, Austria; (INESCP ), Instituto de Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores, Porto, Portugal; IRCAM at the Centre Pompidou in Paris; Centre for Digital Music (C4DM), Queen Mary, University of London, UK; and Barcelona Music and Audio Technology (BMAT), Barcelona, Spain. The project's Scientific Director Michela Magas of Stromatolite launched the first Music Tech Fest event in London 2012 as a way to bring academics and practitioners together. The first festival included contributions from EMI, BBC, Spotify, Soundcloud and Shazam as well as academic researchers, makers, developers and artists. MTF London 2012 featured 54 performers and presenters, 70 hackers and 70 creatives. In May 2013 the festival ran again in London with the additional involvement of all of the major record labels. In September of that year, Professor Andrew Dubber from Birmingham City University joined as festival director. In 2014, the festival went on tour with events in Wellington, Boston, London, Berlin and Paris. In 2015 festival organisers scheduled larger regional events, rather than focusing on individual cities: MTF Scandinavia in Umeå and MTF Central Europe in Ljubljana. Starting with 2015, the Music Tech Fest is supported by the EU Horizon 2020 project ''MusicBricks'' which aims at fostering creative development of new ideas around music technology and supporting pilots which lead to market prototypes. This opens the pathway to reach a wider community of creative SME innovators.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=» The European project #MusicBricks will run a creative testbed pilot during the hacking session )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Music Tech Fest」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
