Theconferencewasjointlyorganizedby theFacultyofMusicandtheDivisionofInformatics, UniversityofEdinburgh. Eachofthepapersinthisvolumewasrefereedbyatleastthreereviewersfrom theProgramCommittee. AdditionalpaperswereacceptedasWork-in-Progress reports, publishedseparatelybytheDivisionofInformaticsoftheUniversity ofEdinburgh. Theconferenceprogramalsoincludedround-tablediscussions, electronicmusicconcerts, earlykeyboardintrumentdemonstrations, andvarious socialevents. Thefocusoftheconferencewasontheinterplaybetweenmusicaltheoryand practiceontheonehandandtechniquesandmethodsfromArti?cialIntelligence, includingcomputationalcognitivemodelingofmusicalprocesses, ontheother. Weareespeciallyinterestedinissuesofmusicalrepresentationandanalysis, associatedalgorithms, andtheevaluationofmusicalartefacts. MusicpresentsmanychallengesforAIandInformaticsingeneral. Whilethe analogieswithnaturallanguageandwithvisionareproductive, musicrequires novelsolutionstoitsownrepresentationalandalgorithmicproblems. Forthe musician, workinthisareacontributestowardsmusicologicalstudy, composition, performance, interactivesystems, andsoundsynthesis.
