NOVARS Research Centre
- NOVARS
- NOVARS is a new Research Centre started in March 2007 at University of Manchester, UK, with specialisms in areas of Electro-acoustic Composition, Performance and Sound-Art. The Centre is capitalising the success of Music at the University of Manchester with a new £2.2 million investment in a cutting-edge new studio infrastructure. NOVARS is named to reference and celebrate the seminal work by Francis Dhomont (Novars). In his own words 'a reversed version of Ars Nova' - New Art, New Science.
