> The CCRMA Lisp Music Workshop 2005 brings together noted composers,  
> performers,
> scientists and technologists engaged in Lisp and Scheme-based music  
> production
> and research.  Three days of invited lectures, seminars and tutorials  
> will be
> presented between Thursday, June 23 and Saturday, June 25.
> 
> The Workshop will host two concerts of music composed and/or  
> electronically
> realized using Lisp-based software.  The first concert is on Monday  
> evening,
> June 20 on the opening night of ILC 2005 in Stanford's Dinkelspiel  
> Auditorium.
> This concert features the Ives Quartet playing works in historical  
> styles
> composed by David Cope's (EMI) Experiments in Musical Intelligence  
> program.
> New compositions by Roger Dannenberg, Mary Simoni, and Heinrich Taube  
> will also
> be presented.  A second concert on Thursday evening, June 23 in Campbell
> Recital Hall of Stanford's Braun Music Center will feature new works of
> Stanford composers.
> 
> Technical content of the Workshop includes two half-day mini-symposia  
> devoted
> to Musical Knowledge Representation, and Real-Time Signal Processing in  
> Lisp
> and Scheme.  Tutorials on Common Music (CM), Common Lisp Music (CLM),  
> Nyquist,
> CLOS (the Common Lisp Object System) and Prolog are scheduled to be  
> presented
> by key developers of these software tools.
> 
> Invited Lisp Music Workshop speakers include:

> John Amuedo, founder of Signal Inference Corp. and the Music Cognition  
> Group,
>    M.I.T. Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
> Chris Chafe, Prof. of Music and Director of CCRMA, Stanford University
> David Cope, Prof. of Music at U.C. Santa Cruz and author of the

>    Musical Intelligence (EMI) automated composition program
> Roger Dannenberg, Assoc. Research Prof. of Computer Science and Art at
>    Carnegie-Mellon University; author of the Nyquist signal processing  
> language
> Randal Leistikow, Stanford CCRMA
> Fernando Lopez-Lezcano, SysAdmin/Lecturer at Stanford CCRMA
> Heinrich Taube -- Assoc. Prof. of Music Composition and Theory at

> laptop computers.
> 
> Prerequisites of the Workshop are a working familiarity with Lisp or  
> Scheme, and
> a professional interest in computational music production or research.   
> ILC 2005
> will present a one-day introductory Common Lisp tutorial on Sunday,  
> June 19 for
> prospective Conference and Workshop participants who would like to  
> strengthen
> their Lisp programming skills.

> Tuition of the three-day Lisp Music Workshop alone is $400 for  
> non-students and
> $250 for students enrolled in an accredited academic institution.  ILC  
> 2005 has
> offered to extend a $100 discount on registration for ILC 2005 to CCRMA  
> Lisp
> Music Workshop participants.  The combined registration for ILC 2005  
> and the
> CCRMA Lisp Music Workshop is $850 for non-students, and $450 for  
> students.
> On-site registration for ILC 2005 is subject to an additional $100  
> surcharge
> for non-students.  Conference and Workshop tuition does not include  
> housing.
> 
> Stanford has made two inexpensive housing options available to Lisp  
> Workshop
> registrants:  on-campus, dormitory-style (shared bath) housing directly
> adjacent to ILC 2005 and Workshop activities for $45-55 per night, and
> off-campus guest house rooms (with private bath) for $69-99 per night.   
> Also,
> a local Palo Alto hotel situated approximately one mile from campus is  
> offering
> preferred rates to Workshop participants of $99/day on weekends and  
> $109/day
> on weekdays.  The latter two options require that you make your own
> transportation arrangements to and from campus.
> 
> Registration for the CCRMA Lisp Music Workshop and ILC 2005 is subject  
> to space
> and housing availability.  Upon completion of your Workshop  
> registration and
> receipt of your payment, you will be provided with links and  
> confirmation codes
> to reserve housing and obtain the applicable ILC 2005 discount.
