from digital ECHOS to virtual ETHOS
Music technology meets philosophy

ICMC-SMC EXPO

In the frame of ICMC-SMC 2014 conference an Exhibition/EXPO of products is foreseen that will be the central focus for presentations on of state-of-the-art in music technology.
The EXPO is located at the space of the "Club Electro - DJ Nights" in the centre of Athens during the conference (14-20 September 2014).  It  will be open to the professionals and the public.

For research institutions and individuals with significant research projects, the EXPO will serve as an area for extended presentation of work beyond the single-track paper session. The non-juried nature of the booths in the EXPO also gives institutes the freedom to choose the work they feel best represents their current research. The booth design will foster more direct interaction among presenters and attendees -- those desiring information about a particular demonstration or line of research will be able to make appointments to meet at the Exhibition Hall booth.

For commercial vendors and music technology corporations, the EXPO will offer an unparalleled opportunity to become involved with the fast-growing ICMC-SMC. The organization of the EXPO should appear quite attractive to prospective commercial participants. Important and innovative work done in the industrial sector will receive the same attention as the research coming from academic institutions.

The EXPO will be open to the public. Being located in a central and easily-accessible part of Athens, the EXPO should become a major attraction during the Conference. We are expecting a big amount of visitors to the EXPO each day.

Workshops or Demonstrations possibility is also available by request.

A bar with refreshments and light meals will be available at the hall.
