HELMCA
Hellenic Electroacoustic Music Composers Association
The
Hellenic Electroacoustic Music Composers Association (HELMCA) is a
non-profit organization. It brings together composers and sound artists
who engage in a creative use of music technology and with their work
explore and produce a wide spectrum of musical approaches and forms of
sonic art.
The
main aim of HELMCA is to strengthen collaboration and solidarity
among its members and to promote their work in Greece and abroad. For
this reason, its work focuses on communicating and exchanging
information as well as organizing festivals, concerts, installations,
conferences, seminars, and
workshops. The Electroacoustic
Music Days festival forms the
association s main event held annually, a meeting of the members to
present and perform their latest work.
The
foundation of HELMCA in 2002 coincides with a new phase in the
development of electronic music in Greece. This phase marks the
appearance of several notable young composers – some of them already
having important international distinctions - and the development of
educational institutions in the fields of music technology and
electroacoustic music.
Since June 2006 HELMCA is the National
Federation member of the CIME (Confederation
Internationale
de Musique Electroacoustique).
