Typical paper contributions are between 6 - 8 pages, and typical poster contributions are 4 - 5 pages long. Full papers should describe work that offers a substantial contribution to the field of auditory display. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to give an oral presentation of their work, and at least one author must present the work at the conference for the paper to appear in the proceedings. Poster submissions should describe both finished work and work in late stages of progress. Work that is complete enough that meaningful conclusions can be drawn at the time of submission are encouraged. Authors of accepted submissions will be invited to participate in a poster and/or demonstration session, and at least one author must present the work at the conference for the paper to appear in the published proceedings. When weighing the decision to submit to poster and demonstration sessions, we encourage authors to consider their work in relation to the potential positive benefits (both to authors and their audiences) afforded by the personal interactions that occur in this type of session.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;">Authors of selected full papers will be invited to submit an extended version (up to 12 pages) of their papers for publication in a Special Issue of the Journal on Multimodal User Interfaces (JMUI): Auditory Display.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;">(<u>http:// <a href="http://www.springer.com/computer/hci/journal/12193">www.springer.com/computer/hci/journal/12193</a></u>)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 8pt;">::::::::::::::::: EXTENDED ABSTRACTS :::::::::::::::::</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 8pt;">Extended abstracts include, but are not limited to late-breaking results, works in early stages of progress, novel methodologies, unique or controversial theoretical positions, and discussions of unsuccessful research or null findings. Submissions for extended abstracts require a proceedings paper of up to 2 pages in length. Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to give a short presentation of their work, and at least one author must present the work at the conference for the abstract to appear in the published proceedings. The deadline of the extended abstracts is later to allow very recent contributions in the field.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 8pt;">Papers Co-Chairs</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;">Visda Goudarzi and Areti Andreopoulou<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;"><a href="mailto:papers.icad15@iem.at">papers.icad15@iem.at</a></span></u><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 8pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 8pt;">::::::::::::::::: MUSIC AND INSTALLATIONS:::::::::::::::::</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 8pt;">We invite submissions of music and sound installations. Sonification should be a constitutive element of the proposed works. Priority will be given to works employing space and interaction as additional dimensions to an artistic data exploration. We therefore especially encourage the submission of multichannel electroacoustic or acousmatic pieces and interactive sound installations.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 8pt;">The works will be reviewed by an international panel of sound and sonification experts. Preference will be given to submissions that are technically feasible and have a clear documentation of the setup. At least one of the authors who wish to have their works presented at ICAD15 must register and attend to the conference. As we would like to extend the presentation of these works beyond the time limits of the conference, authors of accepted works are encouraged to present their work also online using the Research Catalogue </span><u style="font-size: 8pt;">(<a href="http://www.researchcatalogue.net">http://www.researchcatalogue.net</a></u><span style="font-size: 8pt;">), an international database for artistic research.
