The call for papers, music, and workshop & tutorial proposals opens on 9 November 2026. Theme: At the Limits of Immersion As AI-driven systems increasingly shape musical creation, questions emerge not only about their possibilities, but also about the limits of immersion. AIMC 2027 invites reflection on the perceptual, cognitive, technical and material boundaries encountered as immersive systems grow in scale and complexity. Rather than framing limits as constraints, the conference proposes them as generative sites where scientific inquiry, engineering practice, artistic creation and critical reflection meet.
