[PlanetCCRMA] CCRMA Faculty Opening

[Chris Chafe]

On behalf of Stanford University's Center for Computer Research in Music
and Acoustics and our Search Committee, I'd like to bring to your
attention a faculty opening at CCRMA. I am attempting to spread the word
as far and wide as possible. I write in the hope that you could identify
any exceptionally promising students or colleagues and encourage them to
consider applying. This a wonderful opportunity for individuals who are
likely to shape the field and are still at an early career stage. We are
particularly looking for applicants who would add diversity to our
faculty
in many respects.

Please feel free to send me any names of individuals you think I might
try contacting personally, and I'd be happy to answer any questions
relating to this search.

Thanks very much for your attention, we're extremely excited by what
this means for CCRMA's future and appreciate any assistance in our
search.

Sincerely,
Chris Chafe
Director, CCRMA
