We have one of the very few research institute dedicated to this kind of topics in Paris : the IRCAM[1]. They do very interesting and amusing research. I attended a few talks there and I heard some pretty strange musical stuff, that I wouldn't have distinguished from noise if I hadn't listened to the talk before (and even then, I'm 100% sure I didn't get it fully, because I didn't understand all the math from the talk, and because my ear is not trained enough).
