Creation & Artistic Research

Edit






IRCAM is an internationally recognized research center dedicated to creating new technologies for music. The institute offers a unique experimental environment where composers strive to enlarge their musical experience through the concepts expressed in new technologies.

The creative projects elaborated in the IRCAM studios incarnate a broad diversity of aesthetics and formats. From instrumental solos to full orchestras, from installations to operas, from chamber music to recorded music, over 20 creations can be found throughout the Parisian season and the annual festival ManiFeste. IRCAM is also present in all the major European rendezvous for multidisciplinary creation.

A majority of the creations realized at IRCAM, bringing together composers, scenographers, choreographers, video artists, dancers, and actors, are collaborative projects, participating in the renewal of live performance. IRCAM supports today’s emerging generation, via its Cursus Program on Composition and Computer Music and the workshops during ManiFeste’s international academy.

In 2009, IRCAM instigated a artistic research residency open to professionals in the fields of computer music and sound. The results of this artistic research projects are disseminated via publications by the UMR and STMS Wednesday Seminars. These are the fruit of interactions between new musical ideas and the scientific teams' domains of investigation.
