        Workshop on Sound Perception and Modelling
        Espoo, Finland - August, 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The European IST Project "the Sounding Object", in the framework of
the IST-FET Proactive Initiative on "the Disappearing Computer"
organises a one-day workshop on Sound Perception and Modelling. The
workshop is a satellite event of the International Conference on
Auditory Display.

The workshop focuses on the methods and findings of experimental
psychology and tries to steer the attention of researchers toward
model-based experimentation.

Participation is free.
