The Department of Music at Brown University invites applications for a one-year Postdoctoral Fellowship in multimedia and electronic music. We seek a candidate with broad interdisciplinary interests with evidence of exceptional artistic and technical promise. The successful candidate will be expected to participate in the MEME program in the Music Department teaching one course per semester in specific areas of their expertise in electronic music and multimedia, plus run regular technical workshops and critique sessions.

The MEME program (Multimedia and Electronic Music Experiments) offers an undergraduate “track” and a Ph.D. in Electronic Music and Multimedia. MEME actively promotes research, publications, and technology exploring new art forms that combine digital music and sound with video processing, text, human/computer interaction and/or images for applications in concert music, theatre, dance, and installation art.

Brown University is a leading Ivy League institution with a distinctive academic program and a tradition of innovative and rigorous multidisciplinary study. A commitment to diversity and intellectual freedom has remained a hallmark of the University since its establishment. The Department of Music--with 14 faculty, 30 teaching associates, music library, and state-of-the-art music and multimedia production facilities --supports undergraduate and graduate courses in the areas of history, theory, ethnomusicology, composition, performance, computer music and multimedia.
