Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals & Robots (VIHAR)



Dear Colleagues,

I'm planning to organise a workshop on 'Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals and Robots' (VIHAR).  The idea is to bring together people from a range of different areas - HHI, AAI, RRI, HAI, HRI and ARI - in order to compare and contrast our current level of understanding and to attempt to identify any common principles that underpin vocally coordinated behaviour.

I have in mind proposing a Dagstuhl Seminar/Workshop (https://www.dagstuhl.de) and the next deadline for applications is 1st November 2015.  So, please can you let me know if (a) you would be interested in participating in such an event or (b) you would be keen to get involved in the organisation in some capacity.

Thanks
Roger
