IEM cube

Founded in 1965, IEM is currently considered Austria's leading research institution in acoustics and audio engineering and has gained international reputation during the last decade for its research on spatial audio processing, psychoacoustic evaluation experiments, computer music, and the assistance in opera productions with live electronics and spatial sound. Moreover, most scholars in Austria who are interested in computer music, musical acoustics, recording, live-electronics, spatial sound and psychoacoustics are aware of courses offered by IEM in different academic curricula. Clearly, coverage of all those aspects is inherently multidisciplinary, bringing together arts, technology, and science.
IEM has been embracing linux audio as a production and research environment since the mid-1990s, and has contributed to FLOSS/Linux projects, amongst others by providing drivers for multichannel soundcards and hosting the Pure Data community portal and Mailing lists.
