Call for Papers, Posters, Extended Abstracts, Music, Installations, and
Workshops - ICAD 2015
“ICAD in Space: Interactive Spatial Sonification”
The 21st International Conference on Auditory Display
July 6 - 7 Workshops and Student Think Tank
July 8 - 10 Conference
University of Music and Performing Arts and Technical University of Graz,
Austria.
The conference is organised by the Institute of Electronic Music and Acoustics
(IEM). IEM is one of the leading institutions in the field of audio engineering
and computer music. As part of the University of Music and Performing Arts
Graz, IEM is a multidisciplinary institution, whose general mission is to
bridge the gap between science and the arts. As a unique characteristic, IEM
focuses on sonification as part of its research in computer music. IEM
facilities include laboratories and performance spaces such as CUBE, which are
equipped with spatial audio and motion tracking systems. Since 2014, IEM hosts
the Sonic Interaction Design (SID) lab, in which interactive sound systems are
designed and evaluated.
ICAD is a highly interdisciplinary conference with relevance to researchers,
practitioners, artists, and graduate students working with sound to convey and
explore information. The conference is unique in its specific focus on auditory
displays and the range of interdisciplinary issues related to their use. Like
its predecessors, ICAD15 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with
no membership or affiliation requirements. In addition to ICAD's core
interests, we would like to take the opportunity of the conference being held
at IEM to highlight this yearʼs theme ICAD in Space: Sonification, Sonic
Interaction Design, and Spatial Audio.

Accepted papers will be included in the published proceedings and made publicly
available in the Georgia Tech SMARTech system (http:// smartech.gatech.edu/).
The types of submissions solicited for ICAD15 include:
::::::::::::::::: PAPERS AND POSTERS:::::::::::::::::
Paper and poster submissions will be 4-8 pages in length, including all figures
and references. Typical paper contributions are between 6 - 8 pages, and
typical poster contributions are 4 - 5 pages long. Full papers should describe
work that offers a substantial contribution to the field of auditory display.
Authors of accepted papers will be invited to give an oral presentation of
their work, and at least one author must present the work at the conference for
the paper to appear in the proceedings. Poster submissions should describe both
finished work and work in late stages of progress. Work that is complete enough
that meaningful conclusions can be drawn at the time of submission are
encouraged. Authors of accepted submissions will be invited to participate in a
poster and/or demonstration session, and at least one author must present the
work at the conference for the paper to appear in the published proceedings.
When weighing the decision to submit to poster and demonstration sessions, we
encourage authors to consider their work in relation to the potential positive
benefits (both to authors and their audiences) afforded by the personal
interactions that occur in this type of session.
Authors of selected full papers will be invited to submit an extended version
(up to 12 pages) of their papers for publication in a Special Issue of the
Journal on Multimodal User Interfaces (JMUI): Auditory Display.

::::::::::::::::: EXTENDED ABSTRACTS :::::::::::::::::
Extended abstracts include, but are not limited to late-breaking results, works
in early stages of progress, novel methodologies, unique or controversial
theoretical positions, and discussions of unsuccessful research or null
findings. Submissions for extended abstracts require a proceedings paper of up
to 2 pages in length. Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to give a
short presentation of their work, and at least one author must present the work
at the conference for the abstract to appear in the published proceedings. The
deadline of the extended abstracts is later to allow very recent contributions
in the field.

::::::::::::::::: MUSIC AND INSTALLATIONS:::::::::::::::::
We invite submissions of music and sound installations. Sonification should be
a constitutive element of the proposed works. Priority will be given to works
employing space and interaction as additional dimensions to an artistic data
exploration. We therefore especially encourage the submission of multichannel
electroacoustic or acousmatic pieces and interactive sound installations.
The works will be reviewed by an international panel of sound and sonification
experts. Preference will be given to submissions that are technically feasible
and have a clear documentation of the setup. At least one of the authors who
wish to have their works presented at ICAD15 must register and attend to the
conference. As we would like to extend the presentation of these works beyond
the time limits of the conference, authors of accepted works are encouraged to
present their work also online using the Research Catalogue
(http://www.researchcatalogue.net), an international database for artistic
research. The conference page will provide a portal to these presentations.

::::::::::::::::: WORKSHOPS ::::::::::::::::
ICAD workshops and tutorials provide in-depth opportunities for conference
attendees to discuss and explore important topics in the field of auditory
display with like-minded researchers and practitioners. Please submit concepts
for “hands-on” workshops or discussion platforms, possibly allowing
participants to contribute, but no paper sessions on their own. Focus areas
can range from applications and programming methodologies to interdisciplinary
research skills, emerging concepts, and challenge problems.
Space, facilities, technical support, and the number of sessions that can be
accepted are limited, so early submission of proposals is encouraged. Workshop
and tutorial organizers are expected to collaborate with the conference
committee, issue calls for participation, gather and review contributed
materials (if appropriate), and decide upon the final program for their session.
