About the journal
Computer Music Journal is a quarterly printed and electronic journal with an annual music disc (CD or DVD, not included electronically). For over a quarter century, CMJ has been the leading publication about computer music, concentrating fully on digital sound technology and all musical applications of computers. This makes it an essential resource for musicians, composers, scientists, engineers, computer enthusiasts and anyone exploring the wonders of computer-generated sound.

Put together by an international board of eminent computer musicians, issues typically include:

  • in-depth articles on new developments in technology, methods, and aesthetics of computer music
  • reports on products of interest, such as new MIDI products
  • interviews with leading figures in the computer music world
  • announcements of and reports on conferences and courses in the United States and abroad
  • publication, event, and recording reviews
  • tutorials, letters, and correspondence
  • numerous graphics, photographs, scores, algorithms, and other illustrations

Before submitting a manuscript, please study the Journal's guidelines below, as well as the manuscript template and spelling guide, available here:

CMJ Article Template (Word, 23k)

CMJ Spelling Guide (PDF, 22k)

Manuscripts are accepted with the understanding that the editors may revise them for greater conciseness, clarity, and conformity with the Journal's style. Manuscripts are anonymously refereed, and authors are sent proofs before publication.

Copyright Policy. Manuscripts are received with the understanding that they represent original material, are not being considered for publication elsewhere, and will not be posted to the Internet nor otherwise publicly distributed by anyone other than MIT Press. Authors will be requested to sign a transfer of copyright to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology so that authors and publishers may be protected from misuse of copyrighted material. If an early version has been or will be published in conference proceedings, please send it also; extensive rewording and substantive additions are required.

Acceptable Formats. Manuscripts must be submitted both on paper and as PDF or Microsoft Word files. Although PDF is preferred for submissions, separate Word files and art files will be required upon acceptance of the manuscript.

Specifications. Please put your text into the Journal's Word template, then apply the appropriate style to every paragraph, including headings, code examples, references, etc. Use of the template is recommended for submissions, and required upon acceptance. All material should appear to be double-spaced, including references and figure captions. If possible, insert figures into the document where first discussed; otherwise, supply figures separately and use clearly visible figure callouts in the text, e.g., (INSERT FIGURE 3 ABOUT HERE). Using a program such as Adobe Acrobat, generate a PDF file from the Word template; otherwise send the Word file itself.

Print the manuscript on one side of letter-bond paper with liberal margins, and include page numbers. The submitted material should not exceed 25 pages, including references and figures.

To ensure anonymity during the review process, the author's name, affiliation, and address should appear on a separate cover page only, and must be omitted from the electronic file.
Acknowledgments and other revealing material may be added after acceptance.

Editing Guidelines. Computer Music Journal articles should be presented in a formal writing style, with one flow of text that reads as an essay. Employ parenthetical expressions sparingly, and write in complete sentences. The Journal uses neither footnotes nor lists of bulleted items.

There are, at most, three levels of headings. Sections are not numbered. Their titles are printed with initial uppercase letters on all important words (not all uppercase).

The running text must contain a mention of each figure: e.g., "Figure 3 demonstrates this dependency."

Fonts are used sparingly. Program code is placed in a fixed-width font. Italicize the first use of a new term or item of jargon; do not use italicization or fonts for emphasis.

References. Cite references in the text by author's last name and year of publication, in parentheses with no comma. Multiple citations from the same author are separated by commas, e.g., (Keislar 1991, 1996). Citations from different authors use semicolons, e.g., (Roads 1981; Roads and Pope 1997).

References should be listed (unnumbered) alphabetically--chronologically for a particular author--at the end of the article. List cited references only, not a general bibliography. The Journal uses the Chicago Manual of Style format; with periods separating most items, e.g.,

(for a journal article)
Makan, K. 1985. "Formatting References." Computer Music Journal, 13(3): 51-55.

(for a proceedings paper)
Leider, C., and B. Terry. 1996. "All About References." Proceedings of the 1996 International Computer Music Conference. San Francisco: International Computer Music Association, pp. 51-54.

(for a book)
Harley, J., and G. Tzanetakis. 2004. Book References. New York: John Wiley and Sons.

See a recent issue of the Journal for more examples.

Algorithms. The Journal publishes algorithms but not program listings. Algorithms should be described in a well-known programming language and should be thoroughly commented (i.e., more English than program). Lengthy examples are usually presented as figures.

Art. Please submit all artwork (except photos) in a machine-readable form. We require encapsulated PostScript (EPS, not plain PostScript) for line art (such as graphs), and uncompressed TIFF (266 dpi minimum) for bitmaps (such as screen pictures). Avoid converting bitmaps to EPS, or line art to TIFF. To ensure legibility of line art, line settings should be no thinner than 0.5 points. The first word of each label in the artwork should start with an uppercase letter.
Because artwork is published in grayscale, diagrams reliant on color must be avoided.

For the initial submission, figures placed in-line in the PDF or Word document are preferred.
Upon acceptance, each figure must be supplied in a separate file, without the figure caption or figure number.  Each subfigure must be in its own file, without the subfigure letter, e.g., "(a)" or "(b)." Include a README file describing the art files, their captions, and the programs that generated them.

Sound Examples. Sound examples that supplement the manuscript are encouraged. Sounds should be submitted on CD, video examples on DVD. Send three discs to George Tzanetakis and one to Douglas Keislar (addresses above). Please include short program notes.

Style For all other questions of style, please refer to The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition, published by the University of Chicago Press (1993).
