Faithful to the Meta – Xenakis team’s ambition to celebrate not only Iannis Xenakis and his work but also his artistic and philosophical legacy, our Symposium will be a global marathon over 41 hours, spanning three continents and five countries. (Forever an athlete, Xenakis taught us all, through his example, the value of surpassing oneself!) Each country will host an 8-hour hybrid, live-streamed session (with a 1-hour intermission between sessions 2 and 3).
Musicians, scholars, artists, architects, mathematicians, and philosophers from all over the world are invited to participate in presenting original papers, workshops, round-table discussions and/or lecture-recitals. For full details, please see here. Applications will be anonymously double peer reviewed via EasyChair.
This is an open call and submissions will be anonymously double peer-reviewed by a distinguished international Scientific and Artistic Committee.
Accepted formats:
- 20-minute papers
- Round table discussions
