I missed Vol. 5, #73 of the Music Research Digest. This issue had the list of Degree Granting Institutions in Computer Music. Could anyone tell me how to get this list? Email or a re-post would be best. Anything more involved (i.e. accessing archive sites, etc.) would probably lead to extreme confusion but I'll try if necessary! Thanks!

I suspect my site has had problems posting news recently. I am reposting this request just in case: I missed Vol. 5, #73 of the Music Research Digest.

If you're reading this for the third time, I apologize. My site has been rather quirky in downloading news over the last 2-3 weeks and, since noone has responded to my previous two postings, I suspect that there have also been problems with posting articles. So, in the immortal words of Count Basie, "Let's try it one more once." I missed Vol. 5, #73 of the Music Research Digest. This issue had the list of Degree Granting Institutions in Computer Music.

I would like to see this list also. It would also be nice to find a university that tolerated a level of compositional freedom equal to the freedom that studio artists enjoy. I am quite tired and bored of the narrow analysis curricula that schoenberg and schencker (I hope I spelled the latter incorrectly!) have left us. There are many musical worlds that can be created that notes on parchment cannot adequately communicate. Academia seems to value these written scores more than music itself. This is a pathetic tragedy. (Come on Roger, this is bait.) The composer should be allowed the freedom to determine not only their compositional methods, but they should be allowed to determine their own educational path. The study of music should not resemble the study of medicine. Listeners of "malformed" music are not going to bleed and die; they will only leave. The communicative potential of our collective homogenized music curricula pales beside the potential of facilitative academic freedom. Communication is valuable only to those who are willing. I am willing to communicate in an academic setting if my differ- ences are at least recognized and respected. Institutions that refuse to recognize my musical methods (ie digital signal representations/manipulations) as viable will lose my respect and my contextual benefits. However, state funded schools have an obligation to meet the needs of all its students. If we choose to fund musical studies, the dispositions and methods of all music students need to be identified and respected. I thought that it was time to remind academia of musical responsibility once again. It is quite a shame; they mock such responsibility.
