ARME seminar and live demonstration at Wolfson College
Image: University of Birmingham VR Lab.ARME was presented through a seminar and live demonstration at Wolfson College, Oxford, in collaboration with music-history and ensemble-practice communities.
The event introduced the scientific and technical foundations of ARME, including virtual musicians, adaptive metronomes, video capture, computational models of synchronisation, and immersive rehearsal scenarios. Participants were able to see how ARME turns ideas from timing research into interactive musical tools.
The seminar connected the project with professional musicians, music scholars, and audiences interested in how ensemble practice can change when performers are not physically in the same room. It also helped explain ARME’s broader relevance for music pedagogy and access to ensemble rehearsal.
