Music technology took center stage at MIT during “FUTURE PHASES,” an evening of works for string orchestra and electronics. Presented by the MIT Music Technology and Computation Graduate Program, in collaboration with the MIT Media Lab’s Opera of the Future group and Boston’s self-conducted chamber orchestra A Far Cry, the event was held as part of the 2025 International Computer Music Conference.

Watch: Throughout his career, Professor @ishii_mit has worked to expand the boundaries of digital information and interaction design beyond the pixel, connecting people across distance, and across time. His vision has encompassed new paradigms for telepresence, and more recently, TeleAbsence.
“Life has a set end point, but the future is never ending,” he says. “Technologies soon become obsolete, but the true vision is everlasting.”
