In this presentation composer Kenneth Newby will present the current 
state of his long-term artistic research in computer aided composition, 
reflecting on the relationship between culture, practice and meaning in 
the composition, orchestration and performance of music for a virtual 
orchestra.


Kenneth Newby is a media artist, composer-performer, educator, 
interaction designer, and audio producer whose creative practice 
explores the use of technology to enable the creation of music, media 
performances, installations and experiences that are rich in aural, 
visual and cultural nuances. His research includes the development of 
new media diffusion techniques, augmented reality systems for museum 
experience design, generative systems for music and visual art, and the 
encoding of creative practices.


Kenneth is currently faculty of New Media in the Visual Arts Department 
at the University of the Fraser Valley.  He has worked as an 
interactivity consultant for Pixar Animation Studios, and a Sound Artist 
and Audio Software Developer for Electronic Arts.
