ASSOCIATION FOR TECHNOLOGY IN MUSIC INSTRUCTION (ATMI)
2008 CALL FOR PROGRAM PARTICIPATION
_____________________________________________
The ATMI 2008 Program Committee invites the submission of proposals
for the 2008 Conference. The concurrent national conferences of ATMI
and the College Music Society will be held in Atlanta, Georgia,
September 25-28, 2008. Proposals dealing with any aspect of
technology in music instruction and/or electronic performance are
welcome. The Association is particularly interested in presentations
that focus on
* Music technology curricular and programmatic interests
* Online music instruction: local, regional, national, and international
* Multimedia: integrating text, graphics, video, audio, etc.
* Creative pedagogies/technological tools: music learning,
composition, etc.
* Performance incorporating music technology
* Uses of MIDI, digital audio, etc. in ensembles
* Research on the effectiveness of music technology
* Student-created projects involving music technology
_____________________________________________
AWARDS
ATMI will recognize outstanding presentations in two categories.
Monetary awards will be given for the best conference-wide
presentation ($100) and the best student presentation ($250). In
order to qualify for the student award, the presenter must be
enrolled as a student at the time of the conference.
Faculty members should encourage outstanding students to submit
proposals. Additional information on these awards may be found at the
ATMI website <http://www.atmionline.org/>.

PROPOSAL SUBMISSION DEADLINE
January 21, 2008. A complete Proposal Form is included at the end of
this announcement. A downloadable version is available at the ATMI
website <http://www.atmionline.org/>.
_____________________________________________
CONFERENCE SESSIONS
The conference will offer a variety of presentation formats,
including papers, panels, demonstrations, training sessions/
workshops, electronic poster sessions, and performances involving
technology software/hardware. In addition, the intended audience
will be identified with regard to prior music technology experiences
or comfort level (e.g., general, novice, intermediate, or advanced).
Presenters are encouraged to reserve five minutes at the end of their
time slots for brief question and answer periods.
Presenters are strongly encouraged to propose electronic poster
sessions. This venue is particularly appropriate for graduate
students engaged in relevant and timely research. These will follow
the usual electronic poster session format.
A Conference Proceedings Index will be available, which will point to
presenter's sites to provide centralized access to conference topics.

PRESENTATION TOPICS
Proposals dealing with any aspect of technology in music instruction
and/or electronic performance are welcome. The Association is
particularly interested in presentations that focus on:
* Music technology curricular and programmatic interests
* Online music instruction: local, regional, national, and international
* Multimedia: integrating text, graphics, video, audio, etc.
* Creative pedagogies/technological tools: music learning,
composition, etc.
* Performance incorporating music technology
* Uses of MIDI, digital audio, etc. in ensembles
* Research on the effectiveness of music technology
* Student-created projects involving music technology
The Association strongly encourages students to present their own
projects, though a faculty ATMI member may submit the official proposal.

PRESENTATION FORMATS
ELECTRONIC PERFORMANCE: The Association renews its efforts to present
musical performances featuring the use of MIDI, digital audio, or
other media technologies. If relevant, the proposal should include
specific information regarding the ensemble and its relation to
curricular goals. Encouraged are solo, chamber, or ensemble
performance proposals, demonstrations of unique electronic
instruments, or performance-related compositional activities
involving music technology. (If you know of performers, ensembles, or
presenters that meet this description, please forward this message to
the appropriate person!) NOTE: ATMI cannot provide funding/
compensation for the travel or lodging of any performers. At least
one person involved in the presentation (e.g., director, performer,
composer) must be an ATMI member. Submitting a proposal indicates the
intent to attend the conference and deliver the presentation.
PAPERS AND PANELS: Traditional academic papers and panels dealing
with music technology in any manner are welcome.
DEMONSTRATIONS: Appropriate are demonstrations that focus on newly
authored software from all aspects of the music curriculum. We also
encourage demonstrations on existing software that are especially
useful in instructional and creative purposes. Especially welcomed
are applications that take an innovative approach to music teaching
and learning. Proposals should include a complete description of the
software's design and its use in the teaching environment.
TRAINING SESSIONS/WORKSHOPS: People looking for practical ways to
expand their skills often attend ATMI sessions. The Program Committee
would like to serve this constituency by offering short training
sessions tailored to attendees with novice and intermediate skill
levels. Submissions in this category should focus on the presenter's
level of experience and background. A one-hour limit will be placed
on these workshops. Presenters will need to provide the appropriate
software, preferably on CD-ROM. NOTE: We will have a lab of Apple
computers, each with a MIDI controller, connected via a group
education controller available for these sessions. Special
consideration may be given to those who take advantage of this lab.
ELECTRONIC POSTER SESSION(S): The conference will host at least one
computer-based poster session, in which multiple presenters will
concurrently show material in a large display area. Especially
encouraged are one-on-one or small-group presentations or
demonstrations of research, interactive music lab software, work in
progress, and examples of student work. Proposals should include a
complete description of the material to be presented. If appropriate,
graphic images or actual software samples may be included with a
proposal submission, but should be clearly described in the text of
the proposal. NOTE: Poster session participants must supply all
necessary presentation hardware and software.
NORMAL CONFERENCE EQUIPMENT: As in the past, the ATMI room will be
equipped with a data projector and moderate sound system. At least
one synthesizer and a MIDI Interface (USB) will be available.
All INTERNET-BASED PRESENTATIONS should be designed to run locally
(i.e., without actual connection to the Internet) due to the
unpredictability of conference facility telephone/network lines. If
an actual connection is *essential* to your proposal, this must be
indicated in the Specialized Equipment/Software portion of the
proposal form.
Details regarding specific hardware configurations and installed
software in the lab room will be available immediately prior to the
conference. However, you should be prepared to provide whatever non-
standard software and/or hardware is required for your presentation.
ATMI members who can supply (i.e., bring with them) any of the
equipment listed here are highly encouraged to contact the Program
Chair. This will help to defer the significant cost of equipment rental.
Presenters are expected to supply their own laptop computers, which
must be appropriately configured to work with typical data
projectors. Consult your local dealer if you are unsure about
compatibility issues.
