ISATMA 2018: Expanding the Improvising Community across Abilities, Bodies and Cultures.

Participate! Experience! Create!

The International Symposium on Assistive Technology for Music and Art (ISATMA) is devoted to new technologies and artistic concepts that provide artists across abilities access to creative tools for making multimedia works. It addresses adaptive interfaces that can control digital workstations with limited mobility and accessible telepresence environments where groups can collaborate regardless of disability.

Talks, technical demos, music presentations, and a panel discussion will lay out the current state of assistive technologies and discuss future needs and trends. ISATMA 2018 will have an emphasis on Percussion with special guests Jackie Bertone, Jesse Stewart and Leaf Miller.

All events are open to the public and free of charge.
