Musical interfaces in/as education
Increasing musical choices for disabled musicians through new accessible interfaces
Easier/cheaper approaches to the design of bespoke accessible instruments (that can be adapted to a user's requirements), in a world dominated by mass production
Strategies that improve the reach and replicability of one-off accessible instrument projects, particularly those that are unlikely to have full commercial potential
Musical interfaces tailored to formally trained musicians
Novel controllers, interfaces or instruments for musical expression
Augmented, embedded and hyper instruments
Technologies or systems for collaborative music-making
Mobile music-making
Music-related human-computer interaction and mapping strategies
Sensor and actuator technologies, including haptics and force feedback devices
Explorations of relationships between motion, gesture and music
Evaluation and user studies of new interfaces for musical expression or commercially available "off the shelf" interfaces
Musical robotics
Interactive sound art and installations
Performance rendering and generative algorithms
Machine learning in musical performance
Artificial intelligence and new interfaces for musical expression
Web-based and/or telematic music performance
Software frameworks, interface protocols, and data formats, for supporting musical interaction
Historical, theoretical or philosophical discussions about designing or performing with new interfaces
Supporting cultural diversity through musical interfaces
Discussions about the artistic, cultural, and social impact of new interfaces
Pedagogical perspectives or reports on student projects in the framework of NIME-related courses
Practice-based research approaches/methodologies/criticism relating to the use of musical interfaces
