Articles to be considered for publication in the named issue are now invited.

Analysis and Synthesis

The Editors of Organised Sound are seeking papers relating to
musical/multimedia applications of technology. Articles for submission can
fall into four categories: Tutorial articles - focusing upon aspects of
either music, technology or techniques that are intended for reference and
tutorial purposes; Student papers - short articles highlighting the work of
young researchers and composers; Themed articles - related to any aspect of
an issue's theme, or general articles about compositional approaches and/or
technical matters arising from the application of technology to music.
Articles relating to the theme of a particular issue normally represent
about 40% of its content. Organised Sound also accepts music-only
submissions for publication on its annual CD.

We are seeking themed submissions for Vol.2 No.3 relating to any aspect
of analysis and/or synthesis. Articles on synthesis or re-synthesis
techniques, the analysis of musical works, the synthesis of
compositional techniques, sound/acoustic analysis and representation
and the results of synthesising different media will be amongst the
areas considered for publication.

General Aims of Organised Sound

This journal is intended for student, amateur and professional musicians,
musicologists, engineers and members of the public interested in the
application of computers to music. It features papers relating to any
musical activity using computers, and any engineering activity that has
a demonstrable musical aim. Other audio arts, such as multi-media works
or sound sculptures are included. It also provides a focus for engineers
who are involved in the development of musical tools. Each issue will
comprise approximately 60% of its article content to a named theme.

The editors have formulated the following broad aims:

-	To provide a platform for musical and related technological discussion
-	To further the dialogue between engineers and musicians.
-	To provide tutorial texts for students of computer music.
-	To disseminate musical material through the production of a compact
disk related to articles contained in the journal (one per annum).
-	To encourage musical uses of multi-media.
-	To encourage (young) specialists in the field to publish and share
	   the results of their work.
