Dan Timis (1954 - 2009)
Roumanie
(15 July 1954 -3 February 2009)
Brilliant representative of the Romanian music, IT and composer Dan Timis imposed and internationally through his highly complex, combining the most noble elements of tradition (including the wonderful Romanian vein) with innovations designed to change thinking componistica, thanks to techniques in rapidly developing specific digital art.
Born on 15 July 1954 in Bucharest, as the only son of Master Vasile Timis, Dan began studying piano at the School of Music with distinguished professor Nr.5 Marta Paladi, then courses No.1 High School of Music (now High School \'Dinu Lipatti \'-where I had the privilege of classmate) and the Conservatoire\' Ciprian Porumbescu \' (the present National University of Music), where he graduated Composition Department, with the guidance of renowned representatives of the Romanian school, as Anatol Vieru, Stefan Niculescu , Aurel Stroe, Liviu Comes, Dinu Petrescu, Dinu Ciocan and Ioana Minei.
Since the study was imposed by the extraordinary talent or componistic, but also by the enthusiasm shown in the direction of discovery with the help of computer, new solutions in developing sound expression -in this sense he continued successfully and in a plan initiated education experiments in Romania by Aurel Stroe and Grigore Moisil. Thus, in parallel studies conducted at the Conservatory of music, he attended courses and the Faculty of Automation and Computers, Polytechnic Institute of Bucharest.
Marked by these experiences multidisciplinary creation of this period was distinguished by the major awards given by the Union of Composers and Musicologists from Romania and by the Conservatory \'Ciprian Porumbescu -historically standing out of them is a series of reference works, such as the Cantata on the texts by Dimitrie Cantemir, the String Quartet (a masterpiece of the genre!), the splendid Sonata for Clarinet and Piano, the Trio for Clarinet, Cello and Piano, the marvellous Songs on poems by Tudor Arghezi and, last but not least, music for films designed to young directors -members of his generation, such as Horia Constantin and Dinu Lazar.
He was a redoubtable pianist, consistent with promoting the creation of the Romanian Society \'Music\' (animated by the illustrious musicologist Radu Stan), both as soloist and as a member of the trio \'NTN\', along with clarinet virtuoso John Nedelciu and signatory of these lines (on cello) -all three are linked by the most profound feelings of friendship.
After graduating from the Conservatoire as head of promotion in 1978, he participated in several editions of the summer courses at Darmstadt supported by Morton Feldman, Ton de Leeuw, Mauricio Kagel and Brian Ferneyhough, and at the conducting courses at Weimar coordinated by Igor Markevitch. In 1982 he settled in Paris, where he graduated and the Faculty of Science, after working as a professor at the prestigious IRCAM, which has designed, along with Rob Gross, new systems of audio files and apply the \'Berkeley UNIX\'.
In 1987 is invited to teach musical informatics at the University of Santa Barbara (USA), where it quickly and as founder of the Center for Experimental Music.
Fundamental advances in the science of music was widely appreciated, effectively inducing a paradigmatic shift. Mention in this context his revolutionary studies, entitled \'Method and system for editing digital audio information with music-like parameters\' (Audio-to-MIDI/MIDI-to-Audio feature, United States Patent 5792971) and \'Using time-stamped event entries to facilitate synchronizing data streams\' (United States Patent 20090006488).

We can thus say that Dan Timis has been a celebrity in this current musical science -key advances leading to the design of new coordinates of the XXI century music.
