Theme of NIME24

This year’s edition focuses again on the permanent theme of tactility, which has always been a fundamental aspect of this conference since it started in 2001. The intimate (felt) experience of creating music seems to be at odds with the increasing separation in the world. From the logic of sustainability, we are forced to be more sensible about the (polluting) travels of artists and scientists. Participants of NIME are encouraged to investigate this (presumed) contradiction between the intimate experience and physical distance between people.
