Please note the new system in the scientific programme for mandatory draft submission followed by full submission.</b> 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. <br><br></div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><br><b>SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME</b></div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><b><br></b>CALL FOR PAPERS</div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><i><br></i>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. </div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><br>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.<br><br>There are three different paper submission categories:<br><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>• Full paper (up to 6 pages in proceedings, longer oral presentation, optional demo)<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>• Short paper/poster (up to 4 pages in proceedings, shorter oral presentation or poster, optional demo)<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>• Demo paper (up to 2 pages in proceedings, demonstration)<br></div><br>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.<br><br>Review process detailed here <a href="http://www.nime.org/nime2014#reviewprocesspapers">http://www.nime.org/nime2014#reviewprocesspapers</a><br><br>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.<br><br><br></div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;">CALL FOR WORKSHOPS</div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><br>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. <br><br>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.<br><br></div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><br><b>TOPICS</b></div><div style="orphans: auto; widows: auto; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><b><br></b>Core topics central to NIME include the following.
