pretty hardcore technical stuff but they are also looking for sound
installations and performance works ...
oh, yeah, and you get to go to Japan.

ICAD2002
SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
(REVISED)
The 8th International Conference on Auditory Display
Advanced Telecommunication Research Institute, Kyoto, Japan
2nd - 5th of July 2002

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Please note: Extended Deadline for papers! 8th Feb.
ICAD 2002 will be held from the 2nd - 5th of July 2002 at Advanced Telecommunication
Research Institute, Japan.
ICAD is a forum for presenting research on the use of sound to display data, monitor
systems, and provide enhanced user interfaces for computers and virtual reality
systems. It is unique in its singular focus on auditory displays, and the array of
perception, technology, design and application areas that these encompass. Like its
predecessors, ICAD 2002 will be a single-track conference. Attendance is open to all,
with no membership or affiliation requirements.
PAPER/POSTER PRESENTATIONS
There are two categories for papers: long papers of 10 pages and 30 minutes
presentation time, and short papers of 6 pages and 20 minutes. Accepted posters will
have 6 pages in the proceedings.
Submissions should consist of a 2-3 pages extended abstract for short papers and
posters and a 4-5 pages extended abstract for long papers. Since audio demonstrations
are an essential part of ICAD, the abstract should include a description of the
prospective audio demonstrations. The templates for submissions are available at
http://www.mic.atr.co.jp/icad2002/page/templates.html
Papers are sought covering all aspects of auditory display. Work in progress papers
are also acceptable. Example topics include, but are not limited to:
* sonification
* 3D/immersive sound
* perceptual aspects of 3D sound
* psychoacoustics and perception
* auditory displays in games and entertainment
* auditory displays in PDA's, wearable computing and embedded systems
* sound synthesis and digital signal processing
* audio in assistive technologies
* auditory icons and earcons
* aesthetics of sonification and 'musification'
* auditory display and art
The papers from this conference will be published in the proceedings and CD-ROM. The
CD-ROM will include also sound examples. The conference organization will also reserve
the right to publish the papers online although copyright will be retained by the
author.
All accepted papers must be presented by an author at the conference. If none of the
authors of an accepted paper has registered to the conference, the paper may not be
published in the proceedings nor the CD-ROM.
**Some researchers, particularly in Australia, have requested that we also accept full
papers to review as it increases their funding options for travel support from their
universities or organisations. For those in this situation, full papers can be
accepted and peer reviewed along with the abstracts .The print proceedings will have
an ISBN number.
