From: Patrick SCHOULLERSubject: Concours "ARTEMIS Orchestra Contest 2007 - 2008" madame, monsieur The ARTEMISIA Association is delighted to inform you that registration for the ARTEMIS Orchestra Contest 2007 - 2008 is now open via the ARTEMIS' web site, www.artemis-office.org To stimulate the interest in careers around embedded computer systems, demonstrate the capabilities of Embedded Systems and to inform the broad public about their significance, ARTEMIS is organising “Artemis Orchestra”, a contest aimed at high schools, universities, research teams and technology Institutions. Built on long-standing European traditions in music, the contest challenges participants to create devices that play real musical instruments with the help of various embedded technologies. The Contest has already created a good amount of interest internationally, with first finals having been held in Berlin in June 2007. The competition is open for groups and individuals and has two classes: Junior and Senior. In the Junior class, all contestants must be in or below their first year of higher education (excluding a guiding person, who is not allowed to participate in the technical design but has an advisory role). ARTEMISIA has budgeted 30 000 euros for the Contest jury to award to the participants according to the published rules. We expect the 2007 - 2008 Contest once more to be a great success and an inspiring, eye-opening event.
