I'm posting this to someone who can't read news, so please E-mail your responses: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have no posting priviliges (although I can send mail to the Berkeley auto-poster, but I got warned by a site specialist not to try that again), and even to send mail beyond purdue.edu over anything besides BITNET requires a kludge (like the one I'm using to mail to you) because I don't have ARPA privileges. I am a musician trapped in the body of a CEE student, and more than anything I want to graduate from this place and pursue studies in computer music. Would you please pass any computer music education information that comes your way over to me? I would really really really really appreciate it. -davisonj@ee.ecn.purdue.edu -davisonj@pur-ee.uucp -...pur-ee!davisonj ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Mike -- |XXX| __/\__ |XXX|--------------------------+-----------------********========= |XXX| \ / |XXX| Michael D.

I would really really really really appreciate it. > This same question was posted a month or so ago, but I am replying anew because I have since compiled a list of institutions with computer music. First of all, here are a few things to understand, and a few disclaimers. I said before that I knew of no graduate program *specifically* in com- puter music, that it was much more common to have a series of courses de- signed for graduate music majors, or perhaps an "emphasis" as in the pro- grams at Stanford and UCSD. Of course these programs require that you be accepted as a music major. I was corrected by someone who said that North- western had a computer music masters program, but that its future is uncertain. The following list is by no means complete, and I am not recommending any of these institutions over any others. I trust others will follow with more information. The first list includes schools and institutions with some kind of organized research facility which MAY OR MAY NOT be part of an academic department, offer courses, or confer degrees of some kind. The second list includes some schools which offer some kinds of courses that include computer music involving computer music languages on a general purpose computer (i.e. not just synthesizers).
