The inaugural Tilde New Music Academy is a collaboration between Arts Centre Melbourne and Tilde New Music and Sound Art. TNMA is an innovative new music program for young people, introducing them to mentors in the field and allowing them to experiment with new music production and techniques.

Tilde's broad aim is to remove the performance barriers associated with challenging new musical works through the use of open space, taking these adventurous works out of the concert hall and by encouraging the full use of the space by the artists, to engage the audience sonically, visually, and sometimes physically. The musical focus is on works created in the last 50 years within the Australasian geographic region that push performer and audience in new and interesting ways, and to facilitate new networked connections and spontaneous collaborations between artists and audiences alike.
