This year the Making New Waves Festival in conjunction with the "Music in the Global Village Conference" will discuss the relationships between music, networked systems and other genresof art. The international conference researches artistic and technological domains that are made available through the interactions of humans and machines in networked systems, and its implications for the creation, performance and perception of music. The festival will present pieces that explore computer technology and the Internet.

Dubbed “the downtown piano queen” (The New Yorker), Kathleen Supové is known to audiences in New York and around the country for her virtuosic and compelling interpretations of new music, her theatrical flamboyance, and her constant experimentation in the presentation of concerts. In her concert at MNW she will challenge both herself and the audience by creating pieces in which the composer allows parts of the composition to be decided by the computer and/or the audience.
