In this article, we discuss the current role of Ambient Intelligence (AmI) in electroacoustic music and reflect on its future. AmI refers to the user-centric approach of seamless ���intelligent��� environments designed to continuously adapt to the user���s needs and intentions. We have previously discussed a contemporary emergent trend in electroacoustic music identified as ���self-organising music���. This trend is directly related to the technological concepts of AmI: i.e., it includes works able to ���sense��� their environment and change their functional structure ��� self-organise sonically ��� in response to this environment through decentralised ���intelligent��� control processes. This article continues beyond our original discussion by envisioning an emerging musical tendency, determined by music interfaces using AmI. This consequently poses radically novel technical and aesthetic questions; new principles for creating music as well as for experiencing it - and as a result perceiving/describing/studying it. In other terms, the consideration of the perceptual ���paradigm shift���, reflected by implications of AmI. We therefore suggest that it is important to think, not only in terms of technological progress but also in terms of a mental evolution.
