The establishment of the SCCiM network, organized in part by CRCA researchers Shlomo Dubnov and Arisha Cont, celebrates the growing nucleus of researchers and research groups focussing on computing applications in music and will facilitate collaborations between music computing researchers, educators, and industry experts in Southern California. The inaugural symposium will feature both faculty and student presentations on music and computing research and will conclude with a roundtable discussion on the role of SCCiM and future activities.

Diana Deutsch and Trevor Henthorn’s critique of the article “Early Childhood Music Education and Predisposition to Absolute Pitch: Teasing Apart Genes and Environment” by Peter K. Gregersen, et al [2000] received validation through its publication in the American Journal of Medical Genetics. By reanalyzing the Gregersen data, upon which the argument of the aforementioned article is based, they showed that Absolute Pitch is related to Tone Language, not genetics. Their work on the relationship between genetics and Absolute Pitch is now considered to be among the leading research on the subject and serves as a valuable reference for geneticists.
