THE THEREMIN CENTER
The Theremin Center for electro-acoustic
music and multimedia was created in Moscow in 1992 by a group of musicians and
computer scientists, under the leadership of Andrei Smirnov. It was named after
Leon Theremin - the Russian inventor of one of the first widely used electronic
musical instruments, also known as the Thereminvox. The Theremin Center
aims to achieve a creative symbiosis and co-operation of musicians, artists,
scientists, and technologists who are oriented toward realization of
experimental projects. They envision the centre as a base from which to carry
out interdisciplinary research in such fields as computer music, real-time
interactive systems and multimedia including dance, visual arts etc., as well as
a centre for the development and creation of innovative programmes, technical
devices and techniques.
