17th Beta release of ELSE 1.0 - now with a total of 294 objects! This needs
Pd 0.49-0 or above! My Live Electronics Tutorial was also updated!
So, my last update from a few days ago had a bugged [conv~] object (which
performs partitioned convolution). This release fixes it and there are
other things too, see:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta17 for more
details. Get binaries also directly from Pd (Help => Find Externals).
Anyway, I can only now finally say my Live Electronics Tutorial solely
depends 100% on the ELSE library. I've also made important reviews on it.
I'm now also reorganizing things in a new and unfinished volume 3! Check it
out:
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronics-Tutorial/releases/tag/v-1.0beta-7
cheers
16th Beta release of ELSE 1.0 - now with a total of 293 objects! This needs
Pd 0.49-0 or above! Not much new in this release. The highlights are 3 new
objects: [conv~], [rec~] and [sample~]. See
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta16 for more
details. Get binaries also directly from Pd (Help => Find Externals).
The [conv~] object is a partitioned convolution abstraction, but a compiled
object should come up sooner or later. One way or another, this object
removes the last dependency from my Live Electronics Tutorial, which now
solely depends 100% on the ELSE library, and what makes this release
special! Check it out:

ICAD 2019 — Call for Submission of Papers, Extended Abstracts, Workshops, and Tutorials
25th International Conference on Auditory Display
Northumbria University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK
23–27 June, 2019
https://icad2019.icad.orghttps://twitter.com/ICAD2019
Theme/Special Focus of ICAD 2019 is "Digital Living: Sonification for Everyday Life".
Digital technology and artificial intelligence are becoming embedded in the objects all around us, from consumer products to the built environment. Everyday life happens where People, Technology, and Place intersect. Our activities and movements are increasingly sensed, digitised and tracked. Of course, the data generated by modern life is a hugely important resource not just for companies who use it for commercial purposes, but it can also be harnessed for the benefit of the individuals it concerns. Sonification research that has hit the news headlines in recent times has often been related to big science done at large publicly funded labs with little impact on the day-to-day lives of people. At ICAD 2019 we want to explore how auditory display technologies and techniques may be used to enhance our everyday lives. From giving people access to what’s going on inside their own bodies, to the human concerns of living in a modern networked and technological city, the range of opportunities for auditory display is wide.
PAPERS AND EXTENDED ABSTRACTS
The ICAD 2019 committee is seeking papers and extended abstracts that will contribute to knowledge of how sonification can support everyday life.
For details on topics of interest, proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit https://icad2019.icad.org/call-for-participation
HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY DESIGN CHALLENGE ON AUDITORY UX DESIGN FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES AND FUTURE MOBILITY
In addition to the general papers call, the organizing committee is pleased to announce a special call for papers, videos and demonstrations of prototypes for the Hyundai Motor Company-sponsored design challenge on "Auditory User eXperience Design for Autonomous Vehicles and Future Mobility". Submissions to this special category could cover:
- Auditory applications for infotainment for autonomous vehicles
- Auditory interactions between connected vehicles
- Auditory situation awareness in autonomous vehicles
- Auditory interactions between autonomous vehicles and pedestrians
- Auditory user interfaces for blind drivers in autonomous vehicles
- Auditory displays for hand-over/take-over request in semi-autonomous vehicles
- Sonification for emotion regulation/meditation of drivers in autonomous vehicles
- Sonic interaction to build the feeling of trust as well as safety
- Sonification for the use cases of electric/hybrid vehicles (e.g., charging, low battery, etc.)
- Driver (or occupant) & vehicle agent dialogue design
- Driving as playing instruments (driving sonification)
- In-vehicle application of spatial (or 3D) sounds for new experiences
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.
Space, facilities, technical support, and the number of workshop and tutorial 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 programme for their session.
IMPORTANT DATES:
- Friday 15th March 2019 — Deadline for submission of full papers and the HMC design challenge
- Friday 29th March 2019 — Workshop/Tutorial proposals due
- Friday 26 April 2019 — Notification of decisions
- Friday 3 May 2019 — Extended abstract submission (some full paper submissions may be recommended for the extended abstract category)

ABOUT ICAD
First held in 1992, 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, ICAD 2019 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or affiliation requirements.

======================
Metacreation applies tools and techniques from artificial intelligence,
artificial life, and machine learning, themselves often inspired by
cognitive and natural science, for creative tasks. Musical Metacreation
studies the design and use of these 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.
MUME intends to bring together artists, practitioners, and researchers
interested in developing systems that autonomously (or interactively)
recognize, learn, represent, compose, generate, complete, accompany, or
interpret music. As such, we welcome contributions to the theory or
practice of generative music systems and their applications in new media,
digital art, and entertainment at large.

techniques for generative music
---- Advances of A-Life, evolutionary computing or agent and multi-agent
based systems for generative music
---- Computational models of human musical creativity
-- Systems and Applications of MUME
---- Systems for autonomous or interactive music composition
---- Systems for automatic generation of expressive musical interpretation
---- Systems for learning or modeling music style and structure
---- Systems for intelligently remixing or recombining musical material
---- Online musical systems (i.e. systems with a real-time element)
---- Adaptive and generative music in video games
---- Generative systems in sound synthesis, or automatic synthesizer design
---- Techniques and systems for supporting human musical creativity
---- Emerging musical styles and approaches to music production and
performance involving the use of AI systems
---- Applications of musical metacreation for digital entertainment: sound
design, soundtracks, interactive art, etc.
-- Evaluation of MUME

Papers and Posters
————————————
The conference is an opportunity to present original research and details of collaborative work. Participants will have the opportunity to offer a presentation of the results of their research on one of the themes of the conference and to interact with their scientific/artistic peers, in a friendly and constructive environment. We encourage submission of a wide range of formats.
Authors of papers and posters may submit an accompanying demonstration proposal in addition to their regular paper or poster submission, by completing the proposal form for practice works (see items 2 and 3 in the next section) and sending it along with their submission. Together with the form, authors have to provide a link to a video about their work. The proposal form for practice works is mandatory for all paper and poster submissions including an accompanying demonstration and must include details about technical set-up and space requirements.
————————————
Practice Works
————————————
We deliberately use a very open term – “practice work” – to encourage diverse ideas of what practice in movement and computing is and how such practice can be presented. We suggest the following as examples of what a practice work might be, but also stress that the list is not exhaustive and any types of presentation can be considered, the only criteria being excellence of the work and whether it is possible to stage the work given the resources, time and space available to the conference.
Suggested practice works topics:
* Technology demos
* Performances (e.g., dance, physical performance, music)
* Artworks
* Interactive Installations
* Movement workshops (i.e., a session in which participants engage in movement based activity)
* Games
* Video presentations
Submissions consist of:
1. An extended abstract (2 pages maximum).
2. The proposal form for practice work, including detailed technical requirements and possible additional information. The form is available here (Ms Excel format) or here (OpenOffice format).
3. Supporting media (videos, pictures, audio, and so on), which should provide an overview of the practical work and details of the practical and technical requirements for putting the work on (this is very important to ensure that we can accommodate the work within the resources of our conference).
Extended abstract for practice work with presentation format to be suggested by the author for example demonstration, performance, art work, movement workshop, game or other practice presentation (2 pages maximum + Demo proposal form). Please note that we are an academic conference with a low fee which means we cannot pay for commissioned performances and art work. Also, we cannot guarantee facilities for all possible sessions, so please give full details of your needs in the proposal form so we can judge whether it is possible.
Submissions will be by extended abstract (2 pages maximum) and a proposal form which will give details of the practical requirements for putting on the work (this is very important to ensure that we can accommodate the work within the resources of our conference).

Doctoral Consortium
————————————
Doctoral papers are an opportunity for PhD students to present their work in progress on their doctorate, share and develop their research ideas in a supportive environment and with the participation of experts in the field. Students will have the opportunity to establish a community, together with other doctoral students at a similar stage of their research. Accepted papers will have an oral presentation in a dedicated session. We encourage students to submit a paper even if they are early in their doctoral work.
Papers should not be longer than 4 pages including the references. The first author must be an actual PhD student. Doctoral Consortium papers will be indexed and published in the ACM digital library. Videos and other supplementary materials are highly welcomed. Students accepted to present their work at the Doctoral Consortium must plan to attend it.
Submission Format and Procedure
All submissions must be written in English. Submissions must be in pdf format and they have to be prepared using the ACM proceedings template: http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template
All contributions must be submitted online through EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=moco2019
All submissions must be anonymous and will be peer-reviewed. The MOCO proceedings will be indexed and published in the ACM digital library.

Greetings and apologies for any cross-postings.
The December 15th deadline for applying to the 2019 Spatial Music Workshop
is approaching. The application portal is here
<http://icat.vt.edu/spatial-music-workshop/>.
The fifth Spatial Music Workshop will take place at the Moss Arts Center at
Virginia Tech from August 12 – 17, 2019. The workshop will consist of
sessions on spatialization techniques, software systems for spatialization,
discussions of current research in spatialization, and listening to
electronic music composed for high-density loudspeaker arrays (HDLAs). We
welcome applications from composers, sound engineers, acoustic researchers,
or anyone else for whom 3D spatial projection of sound is highly pertinent
to their work.
Best,
Eric
