CREAMA – Center for Research in Electro-Acoustic Music and Audio at Hanyang University

Abstract

The computer music studios of the composition department at Hanyang University in Seoul, Korea have recently been linked to a newly-created autonomous organization called CREAMA: the Center for Research in Electro-Acoustic Music and Audio. Over the past handful of years the Hanyang University’s studios have been active both nationally and internationally in the realms of electronic and computer music pedagogy, research, creation and performance, and the new connection with CREAMA will help continue to develop these activities and promote their visibility outside the confines of the university. Nonetheless, the studios and the university’s computer music degree program (recently expanded to encompass both undergraduate and doctoral-level students) are both closely associated with the activities of the center.
