  • Piece and paper (4 pages maximum, not including references; in combination with a music submission)
  • Demonstrations (3 pages maximum, not including references).

Submission instructions

All papers must use the AI Music Creativity template, and be submitted through EasyChair. Submissions must be anonymized and will be subject to peer-review by at least three independent reviewers. Demo systems should be tested and working by the time of submission. We encourage audio and video material to accompany and illustrate submitted papers. We ask that authors arrange for their web hosting of audio and video files, and give URL links to all such files within the text of the submitted paper. At least one author of each accepted submission will be required to register for the conference.

Proceedings

All accepted papers, regardless of their format, will be included in the Conference Proceedings. The proceedings will be published as an electronic Open Access publication with ISBN. Selected papers will be published, in expanded form, in a special issue of the Journal of Creative Music Systems.
