Dr Mark Gotham, Senior Lecturer in Cultural Computation, is hosting the 20th Digital Music Research Network (DMRN+20) One-day Workshop on 16 December 2025 in Bush House at King’s College London.

This years’ theme is “Collaboration, Coordination, and Community” with keynote speaker Julian Parker (Stability AI) and an invited panel of London experts.

KCL has recently hired several Sound and Music Computing scholars in Faculties across the university. The past year alone has seen Professor Mark Plumbley return to KCL as Head of Informatics, Dr Julie Meyer appointed as Lecturer to Engineering, and Dr Mark Gotham as Senior Lecturer to the Department of Digital Humanities. They join Professor Elaine Chew in the Department of Engineering and School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences, Professor Zoran Cvetkovic in the Department of Engineering, and other KCL academics with strong research alignments with music and acoustics. The Music and Acoustics Research Centre (MARC) was created in recognition of this recent boon.

Call for contributions (abstract submission deadline: 14 November 2025)

Registration is FREE (up to room capacity), and will be released in mid November.
