Audio-graphic Modeling and Interaction

Workshop @ NIME 2011, Oslo, Norway

Sunday, May 29: 1PM-4PM.

This workshop focuses on recent advances and future prospects in
audio-graphic scenes modeling and rendering. The convergence of
the audio and graphic communities is fostered by the increase in
computational resources, by cognitive studies on cross-modal
perception, and by the industrial needs for realistic audio scenes.
Audio-graphic research is spreading in areas such as games,
architecture, urbanism, information visualization, or interactive
artistic digital media. We will focus on the representation, the
interaction, the rendering, and the perception of scenes in which
the audio [...]

November 21-24, 2011
San Francisco, California, USA

Description and Objectives
---------------------------

In the world of the Internet, the rapid growth and exponential use of digital medias leads to the emergence of
virtual environments namely digital ecosystems composed of multiple and independent entities such as individuals,
organizations, services, software and applications sharing one or several missions and focusing on the interactions
and inter-relationships among them. The digital ecosystem exhibits self-organizing environments, thanks to the
re-combination [...]

The ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work and Social
Media is a premier venue for presenting research in the design and use
of technologies that affect groups, organizations, and communities. CSCW
encompasses both the technical and social challenges encountered when
supporting collaboration. The development and application of new
technologies continues to enable new ways of working together and
coordinating activities. Although work is an area of focus, CSCW
embraces research and technologies supporting a wide range of
recreational and social activities using a diverse range of devices. The
conference brings together top researchers and practitioners from
academia and industry [...]

Workshop Theme and Goals
------------------------
When designing mobile interfaces it is certainly important to consider
the users’ needs and intended experience. However, it is also vital to
understand the needs of other stakeholders to ensure the delivery of
user centred mobile designs. Translating and communicating the mobile
user requirements to stakeholders and ensuring best practice is adhered
to can be problematic. This workshop aims to bring practitioners and

*SBIM 2011 Call for Participation*

Advances in pen-based computer hardware have enabled digital sketch-based
interfaces to emerge as a powerful way to combine the quick and intuitive
feel of paper with the power of computation. However, fully realizing the
potential of these sketch-based systems requires effective input devices,
user interface design and underlying algorithms to analyze the input. The
goal of this symposium is to explore models, algorithms and technologies
needed to enable effective sketch-based interfaces. It investigates novel
methods for classification and recognition of hand-drawn shapes, and ways of
using these techniques for creating or editing digital models, text,
[...]
