The Improvising Composer project will be a day long event that will include
workshops in interactive audio software, a panel discussion and concert.
Featured composers are Martin Back, James Brody, William Fowler Collins,
J.A. Deane, Philip Mantione and Christian Pincock.  The panel discussion
will be moderated by long-time music critic and writer, Craig Smith.*

*WORKSHOPS*
 In the workshops, composers will discuss their use of software such as
MAX/Msp, LiSa, Nodal, Plogue Bidule, Super Collider, AudioMulch, Kontakt3,
Artwonk and Ableton Live.  There will be demonstrations of custom built
instruments and the use of micro-controllers such as the MIDITRON and
Arduino to control external devices and capture sensor data.  These sessions
will provide invaluable information for composers, musicians, and artists
that want to perform live, create interactive installations, or to simply
get exposure to current software being used.

*PANEL DISCUSSION*
 Craig Smith will moderate a panel discussion with the six participating
composers.  Topics will include improvisational systems such as Cobra,
Conduction and Soundpainting, approaches to solo versus group improvisation,
and the influence of technology on live improvised performance.

*CONCERT*
 The evening concert* *will feature a series of six solo performances by
each composer and a premiere performance of these musicians as a group. The
six participating composers cover a wide breadth of experience and come from
diverse backgrounds (see ARTIST BIOs below).
