<blockquote>Latin American electroacoustic music has a long,
interesting, strong and prolific history, but it's a history that is
little known even within the region itself. Many composers born or
living in Latin America have been very active in this field, going
back as far as some 50 years in some countries, but the availability
of electroacoustic music recordings and information in Latin America
has been a problem for educators, composers, performers, researchers,
students and the general public.</blockquote>
<blockquote><br></blockquote>
<blockquote>In an effort to preserve, document and disseminate at
least a portion of the electroacoustic music created by Latin American
composers, an archive has been developed at the Daniel Langlois
Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology. Currently, the following
resources are available:</blockquote>
