The McGill Digital Orchestra is a research/creation project supported by the Appui à la recherche-création program of the Fonds de recherche sur la société et la culture (FQRSC) of the Quebec government. Team members include Professors Denys Bouliane and Sean Ferguson of the Composition Area, Professors Marcelo Wanderley, Gary Scavone and Philippe Depalle of the Music Technology Area, and Professor André Roy of the Performance Department. All participants are members of the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music, Media and Technology (CIRMMT). The grant has a duration of three years and will culminate with a performance of new works during the 2008 MusiMarch Festival.
Especially interesting is the projects page which lists the DMIs involved in the orchestra and provides links to more information.
Also see this paper for more detail about the orchestra and the pieces that have been written for it.
