LLEAPP (Laboratory for Laptop and Electronic
Audio Performance Practice) is a collective of musician-researchers based in

tactics and strategies for collaborative play, a series of open rehearsals, and
finishes with a performance each day.
LLEAPP started in 2009 at the University of
Edinburgh, has since been held at different universities across the UK, and is
being hosted this year by De Montfort University, Leicester.
Among featured guests will be Hong Kong-based
