3-7 November 2025, London
UCL East (London, UK )
17th International Symposium on Computer Music Multidisciplinary Research (CMMR 2025)
The 17th edition of the International Symposium on Computer Music Multidisciplinary Research (CMMR) will take place at University College London’s East London campuses, 3 - 7 November 2025.
CMMR 2025 welcomes contributions focusing on the multidisciplinary intersection of sound, music, and computing.
Under this year’s theme, “Sound, Music: Space, Place”, we particularly encourage submissions that delve into the spatial and situated dimensions of sonic practice.
The conference is hosted by UCL’s internationally renowned departments of Anthropology (within the forward-thinking School for the Creative & Cultural Industries) and the Bartlett School of Architecture. The conference is co-organised with the CNRS-AMU PRISM laboratory (Perception, Representations, Image, Sound, Music).
CMMR creates an open and inclusive space dedicated to sharing a wide range of insights and innovations that bridge sound, music, and computing. We invite participation from academics, composers, industry professionals, practitioners, and all others with relevant interests.
CMMR 2025 will feature a diverse range of activities across the following tracks: regular papers, demonstrations, music, tutorials, and workshops. CMMR 2025 is planned to be an in-person event; all presenters are required to attend and present onsite.

Regular Paper Types
Authors are encouraged to select the submission length that best reflects the scope and maturity of their work:
Short Papers (up to 8 pages in the Springer LNCS single-column template, including references): These are ideal for presenting and discussing work-in-progress.
Long Papers (up to 12 pages in the Springer LNCS single-column template, including references): These should present more substantial contributions to the field.
Beyond length, CMMR welcomes a range of paper types, each contributing uniquely to the discourse at the intersection of sound, music, and computing:
Original Research Papers: These should present novel research methods, innovative systems, and insightful results.
Review Papers: These summarize the current state-of-the-art on a specific topic.
Position Papers: These offer a platform to present and discuss a particular stance or perspective on current issues, future directions, or unresolved debates within the field.
Case Study Papers: These delve into practical, real-world situations, implementations, or applications that enrich our collective understanding and contribute to existing knowledge.
