New Interfaces for Musical Expression, also known as NIME, is an international conference dedicated to scientific research on the development of new technologies and their role in musical expression Musical expression is the art of playing or singing with a personal response to the music.
At a practical level, this means making appropriate use of dynamics, phrasing, timbre and articulation to bring the music to life. Composers may specify ...

Areas of application
The following is a partial list of topics covered by the NIME conference: * Design reports on novel controllers and interfaces for musical expression * Performance experience reports on live performance and composition using novel controllers * Controllers for virtuosic performers, novices, education and entertainment * Perceptual & cognitive issues in the design of musical controllers * Movement, visual and physical expression with sonic expressivity * Musical mapping algorithms and intelligent controllers * Novel controllers for collaborative performance * Interface protocols for musical control (e.g.Open Sound Control
Open Sound Control (OSC) is a protocol for networking sound synthesizers, computers, and other multimedia devices for purposes such as musical performance or show control. OSC's advantages include interoperability, accuracy, flexibility and enha ...
