> Canada for the latest developments in musical interface design and 
> musical expression presented in papers, performances, demos and 
> installations. NIME 2005 marks the 5th conference on new musical 
> interface design to follow the initial NIME workshop at CHI 2001, and 
> subsequent international conferences held in Dublin, Montreal and 
> Hamamatsu.  As in previous years, NIME 05 will provide a unique 
> opportunity to converge with an audience of like-minded artists and 
> technologists from around the world.
>
>
> PAPERS
>
> We invite the submission of research papers, reports, and posters on
> topics related to new musical controllers including, but not
> restricted to:
>
>   * Design reports on novel controllers and interfaces for musical
>     expression
>   * Surveys of past work and/or stimulating ideas for future
>     research
>   * Performance experience reports on live performance and
>     composition using novel controllers
>   * Controllers for virtuosic performers, novices, education and
>     entertainment
>   * Perceptual & cognitive issues in the design of musical
>     controllers
>   * Music and motion and/or music and emotion
>   * Movement, visual and physical expression with sonic expressivity
>   * Musical mapping algorithms and intelligent controllers
>   * Novel controllers for collaborative performance
>   * Interface protocols (e.g. MIDI) and alternative controllers
>   * Artistic, cultural, and social impact of new performance
>     interfaces

> INTERATIVE SOUND INSTALLATIONS: *new this year*
>
> At the University of British Columbia, we are creating a new high-tech
> atrium that contains a multichannel sound and video scape platform
> that will be complete by December 15, 2004. The space is intended to
> house interactive sound and video installation works. As an experiment
> for this year's NIME, we are soliciting for proposals for an
> Installation Track to create interactive installation works in this
> space. Please contact the installation track chair for more details
> about this facility or if you are interested in submitting for the
> installation track.

>
> IMPROV SESSIONS: *new this year*
>
> For the first time at NIME there will be semi-organized improvisation
> sessions where scientists, engineers, artists and performers can
> interact with one another. Different configurations and groups will be
> put together based on types of sensors used for gesture recognition,
> genre of sound-mapping, ethnomusicological controllers, rhythm vs
> soundscape controllers, interfaces with motors, etc. There will be 3
> Improv Sessions in the afternoons everyday during lunch and then a
> final jam concert party on the final night. For more information
> contact the Improv Sessions Chair, Ajay Kapur.
