Hi All,
Here in Birmingham we've been moving into our new facilities (part of the £16
million Bramall Music Building). We're very excited about the new possibilities
they offer (6 custom designed studios – 4 of them multichannel and 3 of those
with height, a new concert hall designed with the ca. 100 loudspeaker BEAST
system in mind, the new semi-permanent 30+ channel BEASTdome system, etc.).
We're now just about set up, and have been slowly updating our webpages. Tis
the season (of OT recruitment emails), so I thought I'd point interested people
here:
http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/facilities/BEAST/index.aspx
http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/schools/lcahm/departments/music/postgraduate/index.aspx
We have Masters and PhD courses, including distance learning. Possible topics
include composition (electronic and/or mixed), real-time electroacoustics, live
coding, network music systems, laptop ensemble stuff, sound art, multichannel
techniques, and history and aesthetics of electronic music.
UK/EU students interested in PG study will have access to £14.6 million of new
funding as part of the Midlands 3 cities partnership:
http://www.midlands3cities.ac.uk/midlands-3-cities/index.aspx
These have a relatively short deadline of January 9th. We also have other
sources of funding (including for international students):
http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/schools/calgs/scholarships/index.aspx
http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/International/students/finance/scholarships/index.aspx
On top of that we have various departmental scholarships and assistantships.
Best wishes and happy holidays,
Scott
