We invite submissions for SYNTHposium ’26, bringing together practitioners, researchers, engineers, musicians, and scholars – interested in synthesizers in all their forms – historical, technical, cultural, and creative. We welcome proposals for paper presentations, performance-demonstrations or other initiatives over a two-day event bringing together practitioners, researchers, engineers, musicians, and scholars. Presenters will also be invited to a distributed creativity event on the evening of 11 September for a unique chance to use the historic instruments in the collection.
