Following last year's online format, SMC 2021 welcomes contributions for on= line presentations examining all the core topics of the Sound and Music Com= puting field, including but not limited to: - Algorithms and systems for music composition - Auditory display and data sonification - Automatic separation, recognition, classification of sound and music - Automatic music generation/accompaniment systems - Computational musicology and ethnomusicology - Content processing of music audio signals - Digital audio effects - Hardware systems for sound and music computing - History and aesthetics of electroacoustic music - Humanities in sound and music computing - Interactive performance systems - Interfaces for sound and music - Languages, protocols, and software environments for sound and music compu= ting - Models for sound analysis and synthesis - Multimodality in sound and music computing - Music information retrieval - Music performance analysis and rendering - Perception and cognition of sound and music - Sonic interaction design - Sound and music for accessibility and special needs - Sound/music and the neurosciences - Sound/music signal processing algorithms - Technologies for the preservation, access, and modelling of musical herit= age This year's featured topic is "Reconnecting spaces". The current pandemic s= ituation has dramatically shown that the whole world is closely interconnec= ted. At the same time, it has also demonstrated how fragile this system mad= e up of human relations is, the same system having been abruptly interrupte= d and fragmented at all levels. This fragmentation still has important cons= equences for our community, made up of scientists working in groups distrib= uted among several countries, and musicians, for whom reciprocal interactio= n is a constitutive element of their work. At the same time, we have witnes= sed a fast growth of connectivity, with the proliferation of online sharing= tools and more generally the renewal of work logics for better or for wors= e. What have we learned from this crisis? The accelerated development of netwo= rk technologies can not only allow to make up for the lack of physical inte= raction, but it can even contribute to the establishment of new paradigms t= hat combine real and virtual spaces. With this as the conference theme, SMC= 2021 particularly welcomes contributions in: - Networked performances - Online audio sharing technologies - Sound and music for augmented/virtual reality and games - Soundscape documentation, preservation, and composition - Spatial sound, reverberation, and virtual acoustics - Virtual communities for sound and music collaboration - Web Audio Papers should be between 4 and 8 pages, written in English and not previous= ly published. The paper submission must be in PDF and must conform to the c= onference template that will be made available (LaTeX and Office). Paper abstract submission deadline (strict!): March 05, 2021. Full paper submission deadline (strict!): March 12, 2021. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and all accepted papers will be inclu= ded in the conference Proceedings. In this edition all the contributions wi= ll be presented with the same format, and there will be no distinction betw= een posters and oral presentations. The Proceedings will have an ISBN and the electronic version will be availa= ble on the SMC website (http://smcnetwork.org/) and Zenodo (https://zenodo.= org/communities/smc/). Please note that all accepted papers will be subject= to a publication fee in order to be published in the Proceedings. Due to the uncertainty caused by this pandemic we are investigating the pos= sibility of setting up local hubs during the conference dates allowing for = in-person meetings of participants. More information will be provided in th= e next months.
