Established in 1988 by composers Laura Bianchini and Michelangelo Lupone, the Centro Ricerche Musicali (CRM) in Rome was officially recognized in 1990 as a Music Research Center by the Ministry for University Education and Scientific and Technological Research. The Center focuses on musical production in relation to new technologies, in order to create a continual interaction among musical language, scientific thought, and technological resources. The staff at CRM, comprising musicians, technicians, visual artists, architects, information technology specialists, engineers, and researchers, aim to promote study of the aesthetic, analytical, and scientific aspects of music.

In the beginning, research at CRM concerned the design and development of specific hardware devices for live electronics and composition, such as the Fly10 (1983–1985) and Fly30 (1990) systems. Subsequent studies on a physical model for the bow-and-string system in 1997 gave rise to the development of virtual musical instruments. From 1999 onwards, other areas of research have included interactivity and adaptivity applied to musical forms, the development of specific technologies for sound art installations and sculptural–musical works, and augmented instruments such as the Feed-Drum, SkinAct, WindBack, and ResoFlute.

This article presents a brief history of CRM and some artistic productions by composers working at the Center.

罗马音乐中心 (CRM) 由作曲家劳拉·比安奇尼 (Laura Bianchini) 和米开朗基罗·卢彭 (Michelangelo Lupone) 于 1988 年创立，于 1990 年被大学教育和科技研究部正式认定为音乐研究中心。该中心专注于与新技术相关的音乐制作，以创造音乐语言、科学思想和技术资源之间的持续互动。CRM 的员工包括音乐家、技术人员、视觉艺术家、建筑师、信息技术专家、工程师和研究人员，旨在促进对音乐美学、分析和科学方面的研究。

最初，CRM 的研究涉及用于现场电子和合成的特定硬件设备的设计和开发，例如 Fly10 (1983–1985) 和 Fly30 (1990) 系统。1997 年对弓弦系统物理模型的后续研究促进了虚拟乐器的发展。从 1999 年起，其他研究领域包括应用于音乐形式的交互性和适应性、声音艺术装置和雕塑音乐作品的特定技术的开发，以及诸如 Feed-Drum、SkinAct、WindBack 和 ResoFlute 之类的增强乐器。

本文简要介绍了 CRM 的历史以及在该中心工作的作曲家的一些艺术作品。
