Ich zitiere:

"Yati Durant and I are pleased to have the opportunity to expand this new-formulation of the previous 'University Meeting Group' at SoundTrack_Cologne into a broad new initiative with enormous potential. The European Education Alliance for Music and Sound in Media (EEAMS) aims to grow a broad international network of higher education institutions that train students in the areas of filmmaking, sound design and media music composition. The Alliance welcomes educators, students and industry professionals of related areas and seeks to forge an inclusive framework to support collaborative links and to bridge inter-disciplinary boundaries. The first of recurring bi-annual meetings, chaired by Yati and me, will take place during Soundtrack_Cologne 11, on Thursday 20 November 2014 from 12 noon at the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung Köln. More details to follow.
By this email, we reach out to you, current and prospective members, to gather information and suggestions for the launch meeting. Please take a moment to consider the attached document, which sets out indicative aims, objectives and deliverables of EEAMS. These are not set in stone: We welcome your thoughts and comments on the usefulness of the ideas set out therein. We also welcome additional thoughts and suggestions for an inaugural meeting agenda. This email is being sent to 150+ recipients, but please forward this message to colleagues in your institution, to students and industry professionals in your local network. We look forward to meeting colleagues at the launch meeting in November but expressly hope you can also bring along student representatives of your respective programme.
Although EEAMS is initially focussing on Europe, we also reach out to our colleagues in the United States (NYU, USC and others). We welcome your input and value your feedback.
Please write to us at hexel@soundtrackcologne.de and/or durant@soundtrackcologne.de – we will keep you posted about comments and suggests received.
Please also consider joining our Facebook Group, which will provide an active forum: https://www.facebook.com/groups/224397084437088/266635883546541/?notif_t=like
We look forward to hearing from you and hopefully see you in November!
