Each of the papers is followed by commentaries written by the
original authors and by leading experts. The volume covers
important developments in the field, including the earliest
reports of instruments like the reacTable, Overtone Violin,
Pebblebox, and Plank. There are also numerous papers presenting
new development platforms and technologies, as well as critical
reflections, theoretical analyses and artistic experiences.

The anthology is intended for newcomers who want to get an
overview of recent advances in music technology. The historical
traces, meta-discussions and reflections will also be of interest
for longtime NIME participants. The book thus serves both as a
survey of influential past work and as a starting point for new
and exciting future developments.
