Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) plays host to the 2015 Linux Audio Conference (LAC) from April 9-12, 2015, which brings together GNU/Linux free/libre software users and developers. This year's conference is organized by Dr. Albert Gräf and his team of the Computer Music Research Group at the Institute of Art History and Musicology at Mainz University in cooperation with the Mainz School of Music. The Linux Audio Conference is the largest international conference on free / open source software for music, sound, and other media with GNU/Linux as the main platform. It brings together musicians, composers, sound artists, software developers, researchers, and engineers working with GNU/Linux as an open, stable, professional platform for audio and media research and music production. In addition to lectures, paper presentations, discussions and workshops, LAC 2015 will also offer a variety of concerts as well as the traditional Linux Sound Night – on Saturday, 11 April 2015, in Mainz. Admittance to the LAC 2015 is free, but requires registration; prospective participants can still register free of charge at any time during the conference.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
