DGM dedicates itself to practical music psychology
The German Society for Music Psychology (DGM) will be holding its 30th annual conference at the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS in Erlangen in 2014. The theme of the conference is applied music psychology.
The aim of the conference is to highlight interfaces between music psychology and its application in the engineering sciences. Keynotes by Karlheinz Brandenburg (Fraunhofer IDMT, Ilmenau) and Meinard Müller (International Audio Laboratories, Erlangen) will highlight existing points of contact between the disciplines and provide impetus for new ideas and discussions. Music journalist and composer Michael Rüsenberg (Cologne) will also give a keynote speech.
The conference is also dedicated to Music Information Retrieval (MIR), sound perception, sound evaluation, music and sound synthesis and music effects. In addition, contributions are expected that demonstrate the benefits of technologies from the natural and engineering sciences for music psychology.
