A timely reminder that the deadline for proposals for papers or posters for the Interactive Audio Systems Symposium is July 1st. The symposium is a free event to be held at the University of York on the 23rd September. Please do forward to anyone you think would be would be interested in participating. Many thanks, Gavin ******************************************************** Call for Contributions Interactive Audio Systems Symposium, University of York York, UK Friday 23rd September, 2016 Recent advances in low-cost motion-tracking and sensing technologies, coupled with increased computing power have paved the way for new methods of audio production and reproduction. Interactive audio systems can now readily utilise non-tactile data such as listener location, orientation, gestural control and even biometric feedback, such as heart rate, to intelligently adjust sound output. Such systems offer new creative possibilities for a diverse range of applications ranging from virtual reality, mobile technologies, in-car audio, gaming, social media and film and TV production. The University of York is pleased to announce a one-day symposium dedicated to this topic of interactive audio systems. The symposium will explore the perceptual, signal processing and creative challenges and opportunities arising from such audio systems affected through enhanced human-computer interaction. The symposium will consist of original paper and poster sessions as well as invited presentations from key industry figures and demonstrations of emerging interactive audio technologies. We are now accepting proposals (Abstract and Precis) for 4-8 page papers or posters on novel research in related fields to interactive audio including, but not limited to, the following areas: - Moving sounds and moving listeners - Audio for Virtual Reality - Spatial audio techniques - Psychoacoustics and perception - Signal processing for interactive audio - Robust listener control - Motion tracking - Game audio - Real-time audio synthesis - Interactive music generation - Workflows for interactive audio - Sound design for interactive audio We also invite proposals for tutorials, workshops and demos to be presented on the day.
