19 Dec '19

(Apologies for cross-postings) ICAD 2020 Call for Submission of Papers, Extended Abstracts, Workshops, and Tutorials26th International Conference on Auditory DisplayUniversity of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USAJune 7-11 2020THEME: “SAFE AND SOUND” Sound is used in a wide variety of applications to alert listeners to the status of a person or environment. At ICAD 2020, we want to highlight sonification work that is used to maintain awareness in some capacity (outside navigation, hospitals, air traffic control, etc). Papers are not limited to this theme, as we will value and embrace all types of submissions, including papers, posters, multimedia (videos/audios), demos, and concert pieces. First held in 1992, ICAD is a highly interdisciplinary academic conference with relevance to researchers, practitioners, musicians, and students interested in the design of sounds to support tasks, improve performance, guide decisions, augment awareness, and enhance experiences. It is unique in its singular focus on auditory displays and the array of perception, technology, and application areas that this encompasses. Like its predecessors, ICAD 2020 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or affiliation requirements. ICAD 2020, the 26th International Conference on Auditory Display, will be held at the University of Florida, June 7 to 11, 2020. The graduate student ThinkTank (doctoral consortium) will be held on Sunday, June 7, before the main conference. PAPERS AND EXTENDED ABSTRACTS The ICAD 2020 committee is seeking papers and extended abstracts that will contribute to knowledge of how sonification can support awareness in various contexts. For details on topics of interest, proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit http://icad2020.icad.org , where details will be updated as they are made available. WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS ICAD workshops and tutorials provide in-depth opportunities for conference attendees to discuss and explore important aspects of the field of auditory display with like-minded researchers and practitioners. Sessions can range from applications and programming methodologies to interdisciplinary research skills, emerging research areas, and challenge problems, to sonification/compositional Maker-sessions.

First Call for Papers: 2020 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity (CSMC + MuMe)
by Andre Holzapfel 18 Dec '19

18 Dec '19

First Call for Papers: 2020 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity (CSMC + MuMe) Oct 22-24 2020 @ KTH and KMH, Stockholm, Sweden http://kth.se/aimusic2020 The computational simulation of musical creativity continues to be an exciting and significant area of academic research, and is now making impacts in commercial realms. Such systems pose several theoretical and technical challenges, and are the result of an interdisciplinary effort that encompasses the domains of music, artificial intelligence, cognitive science and philosophy. This can be seen within the broader realm of Musical Metacreation, which studies the design and use of such generative tools and theories for music making: discovery and exploration of novel musical styles and content, collaboration between human performers and creative software “partners”, and design of systems in gaming and entertainment that dynamically generate or modify music. The 2020 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity brings together for the first time two overlapping but distinct research forums: The Computer Simulation of Music Creativity conference (https://csmc2018.wordpress.com, est. 2016), and The International Workshop on Musical Metacreation (http://musicalmetacreation.org, est. 2012). The principal goal is to bring together scholars and artists interested in the virtual emulation of musical creativity and its use for music creation, and to provide an interdisciplinary platform to promote, present and discuss their work in scientific and artistic contexts. The three-day program will feature two keynotes, research paper presentations, demonstrations, discussion panels, and two concerts. Keynote lectures will be delivered by Professor Emeritus Dr. Johan Sundberg (Speech, Music and Hearing, KTH, https://scholar.google.co.uk/citations?user=UXXUEcoAAAAJ <https://scholar.google.co.uk/citations?user=UXXUEcoAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao>) and Dr. Alice Eldridge (Music, Sussex University, UK, https://scholar.google.co.uk/citations?user=uvFGFagAAAAJ). Topics We encourage submissions of work on topics related to CSMC and MuMe, including, but not limited to, the following: Systems * systems capable of analysing music; * systems capable of generating music; * systems capable of performing music; * systems capable of (online) improvisation; * systems for learning or modeling music style and structure; * systems for intelligently remixing or recombining musical material; * systems in sound synthesis, or automatic synthesizer design; * adaptive music generation systems; * music-robotic systems; * systems implementing societies of virtual musicians; * systems that foster and enhance the musical creativity of human users; * music recommendation systems; * systems implementing computational aesthetics, emotional responses, novelty and originality; * applications of CSMC and/or MuMe for digital entertainment: sound design, soundtracks, interactive art, etc. Theory * surveys of state-of-the-art techniques in the research area; * novel representations of musical information; * methodologies for qualitative or quantitative evaluation of CSMC and/or MuMe systems; * philosophical foundations of CSMC and/or MuMe; * mathematical foundations of CSMC and/or MuMe; * evolutionary models for CSMC and/or MuMe; * cognitive models for CSMC and/or MuMe; * studies on the applicability of music-creative techniques to other research areas; * new models for improving CSMC and/or MuMe; * emerging musical styles and approaches to music production and performance involving the use of CSMC and/or MuMe systems * authorship and legal implications of CSMC and/or MuMe; * future directions of CSMC and/or MuMe. Paper Submission Format There are three formats for paper submissions: * Full papers (8 pages maximum, not including references); * Work-in-progress papers (5 pages maximum, not including references); * Demonstrations (3 pages maximum, not including references). The templates will be released early 2020, and EasyChair submission link opened soon thereafter. Please check the conference website for updates: http://kth.se/aimusic2020 Since we will use single-blind reviewing, submissions do not have to be anonymized. Each submission will receive at least three reviews. All papers should be submitted as complete works. Demo systems should be tested and working by the time of submission, rather than be speculative. We encourage audio and video material to accompany and illustrate the papers (especially for demos). We ask that authors arrange for their web hosting of audio and video files, and give URL links to all such files within the text of the submitted paper. Accepted full papers will be published in a proceedings with an ISBN. Furthermore, selected papers will be invited for expansion and consideration for publication in the Journal of Creative Music Systems (https://www.jcms.org.uk). Important Dates Paper submission deadline: August 14 2020 Paper notification: September 18 2020 Camera-ready paper deadline: October 2 2020 Presentation and Multimedia Equipment: We will provide a video projection system as well as a stereo audio system for use by presenters at the venue. Additional equipment required for presentations and demonstrations should be supplied by the presenters. Contact the Conference Chair (bobs(a)kth.se <mailto:bobs@kth.se>) to discuss any special equipment and setup needs/concerns. Attendance At least one author of each accepted submission should register for the conference by Sep. 25, 2020, and attend the workshop to present their contribution. Papers without authors will be withdrawn.

Else 1.0 beta 26 and live electronics tutorial update
by Alexandre Torres Porres 05 Dec '19

05 Dec '19

ELSE 1.0 beta 26 is out! Highlight is a massive update to the [slider2d] abstraction, which now relies on updates I made to the [canvas.mouse] object and a new [savechange] object. Sadly, compatibility has been broken here. There's also a new variant object, a two dimensional circular slider called [circle] - for more details, check: https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta26 (some binaries are already available via Pd). Now for a heads up, Pd 0.51 is coming out and the next update to the ELSE library is gonna break compatibility of dozens objects! This is because [inlet~] will now allow us to send messages in the main left inlet. This also will fix some issues in objects like [else/bl.square~]. Anyway, hopefully this upcoming massive overhaul will also get me very close to a new "release candidate" phase. My tutorial has also been updated to be compatible to ELSE beta 26, see: https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/releases/tag/v1.0-… Examples affected by the new [circle] object are: https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/blob/master/Exampl… and https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/blob/master/Exampl…
