Introduction

Musical Metacreation is a forum for the emerging community of people making software that autonomously generates music. It engages with science, design, technology, philosophy, culture and aesthetics. Following the 1st International Workshop on Musical Metacreation of October 2012 (MUME 2012), we are happy to announce MUME-WE-2013 in Sydney, a weekend of concerts, installations, panels, demos and other music listening.

For those who are interested in clarifying if their work is within the domain of the conference or workshop, we recommend looking at the AIIDE conference proceedings for further detail.
