On 24 March 2014, 21 people came together at Microsoft Research New England<\/a> for a symposium called \u201cWhat Is Music Technology For?\u201d held just after the first Music Tech Fest<\/a> in North America. Those at the symposium were motivated by a passion for music, a fascination with technology and culture, and a concern for how music technology is now developing. Recognizing the fertility of music technology as a subject that bridges computational, scientific, social scientific and humanistic approaches, we looked for common ground across those fields. We debated and developed a set of shared principles about the future of music technology.<\/p>\n

Built from the notes of that day\u2019s event, and revised together in the weeks that followed, this manifesto is the collaboratively-authored product of this meeting.<\/p>\n

The symposium was organized by Nancy Baym<\/a>, Microsoft Research, and Jonathan Sterne<\/a>, McGill University. The participants also included:<\/p>\n

Georgina Born<\/a>, University of Oxford
