2nd CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
On behalf of the NIME 2014 Committee, we would like to invite you to be part of
the 14th international conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression.
We invite submission of new works in the following categories:
• Papers and Posters
• Workshops and Tutorials
• Demonstrations
Important dates
• Scientific programme: Papers, Posters, Workshops, Tutorials and
Demonstrations:
Draft submission (mandatory): January 31, 2014
Final submission: February 7, 2014
Review notification: March 28, 2014
Camera-ready paper deadline: April 18, 2014
Links:
- Paper templates and online submission system
- Any request concerning your submissions, write to
nime2014pap...@goldsmithsdigital.com
Note that only papers and demos submitted to NIME 2014 must be anonymized:
authors are expected to remove author and institutional identities from the
paper. If you are submitting a Workshop or Tutorial, proposals DO NOT need to
be anonymized.
N.B. Please note the new system in the scientific programme for mandatory draft
submission followed by full submission. We have implemented this new system to
address the perennial deadline extensions. This year, we will not offer
extensions. The Draft Submission deadline corresponds to previous years’
submission deadline. On this date, the author must be registered on the online
submission system and have submitted a full draft manuscript of their paper.
You will then have one week (the time of prior years’ extensions) to make minor
edits to your manuscript.
SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME
CALL FOR PAPERS
We welcome submissions of original research on scientific and artistic use of
new interfaces for musical expression. A non-exhaustive list of NIME related
topics is found below. This list is inclusive, and indicative. The thematic
focus of this year’s edition is Liveness, and is described in the introduction
above. We also encourage submissions that extend, stretch, or challenge the
NIME topics and themes.
Acceptance criteria: The paper under consideration must propose an original
contribution to NIME research; it must cite prior related work and should
demonstrate rigorous research methodology.
There are three different paper submission categories:
• Full paper (up to 6 pages in proceedings, longer oral presentation,
optional demo)
• Short paper/poster (up to 4 pages in proceedings, shorter oral
presentation or poster, optional demo)
• Demo paper (up to 2 pages in proceedings, demonstration)
Submitted papers will be subject to a peer review process by an international
expert committee. All accepted papers will be published in the conference
proceedings, under an ISSN/ISBN reference, and will be archived online after
the conference to be tracked by citation tools. A manuscript submitted for
review cannot be already under review for publication elsewhere, or be
submitted for a second review elsewhere while under review for NIME 2014.
Authors of both full and short papers are greatly encouraged to submit a video
in support of their paper. A video is mandatory for demonstration submission.
Review process detailed here http://www.nime.org/nime2014#reviewprocesspapers
A best paper award will be presented to the individual(s) judged by the
scientific committee to have written the best paper appearing in the conference
proceedings.
CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
We invite submissions for half-day (3 hours) or full-day (6 hours) workshops
and tutorials. These can be targeted towards specialist techniques, platforms,
hardware, software or pedagogical topics for the advancement of fellow NIME-ers
and people with experience related to the topic. They can also be targeted
towards visitors to the NIME community, novices/newbies, interested student
participants, people from other fields, and members of the public getting to
know the potential of NIME.
Tutorial proposals should clearly indicate the audience and assumed knowledge
of their intended participants to help us market to the appropriate audience.
Workshops and tutorials can relate to, but are not limited to, the topics of
the conference. This is a good opportunity to explore a specialized interest or
interdisciplinary topic in depth with greater time for discourse, debate, and
collaboration.
TOPICS
