Towards a Latin American NIME Research Community
Historically, Latin America (LATAM) has produced many musics that have resonated around the world. Equally, it has also significantly contributed—and continues to contribute—to the field of New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME) [1]. Yet, the NIME conference has only been hosted in LATAM once at Porto Alegre, Brazil, in 2019, where only 18 publications out of 88 were from LATAM authors and co-authors [2]. Furthermore, authors affiliated to LATAM institutions represent only 2.4% of the total amount of participants of the first 20 NIME Conference editions (from 2001 to 2020) [3]. 
In this SBCM workshop we aim to discuss ways of further visibilizing and fostering NIME research in, by and for LATAM, echoing recent efforts from the wider LATAM Human-Computer Interaction research community [4]. Moreover, we primarily expect to consolidate a LATAM NIME Research Community through a series of actionable initiatives, such as creating a LATAM NIME network, and exploring ways of making NIME research more accessible, affordable and resourceful in consideration of regional geopolitical and socioeconomic challenges, among other actions and topics of discussion.
Participation in the workshop is completely free and will take place on 10/27/2021 (Wednesday) from 9am to 1pm Brasilia time (UTC -3). It will be entirely online through the Zoom platform and you can register by filling out the form: https://forms.gle/Ht8YnJpLHa8F5mUbA. We will send you the event link a few days before the workshop.
