Call: Sound, Image and Interaction Design Symposium (SIIDS) 2020

Call for Papers and Art

Sound, Image and Interaction Design Symposium (SIIDS) 2020
Online [see note below]
https://siids.arditi.pt/

Deadline for submissions: 26 June 2020
Submissions now open: siids.arditi.pt/submissions

NOTE: SIIDS 2020 will take place 4/September/2020 as an online conference. Optionally, and if COVID-19 restrictions allow, there will also be co-located presentations at Madeira Tecnopolo (Funchal, Portugal).

There has been a growing interest in the study of sound and music computing from a Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) perspective. This coincides with the shift to a third wave of HCI towards applications in broader cultural contexts. In the last few years, researchers have paid special attention to the integration of other sensory modalities with sound. In this context, the Sound, Image and Interaction Design Symposium (SIIDS) aims to address emerging issues in research related to the creation of interactive sonic experiences, particularly focusing on the role that image plays in these scenarios.

SUBMISSIONS

SIIDS consists of two tracks: Papers and Art (fixed media). There is no participation fee. The keynote speaker will be announced at a later date. Due to the uncertainty related to COVID-19, this will be an ‘online first’ event (that is, mostly online; if restrictions are lifted meanwhile, we can give the option to participate locally or online).

Authors will be invited to submit an expanded version of their submissions to a Special Issue of the journal EAI Endorsed Transactions on Creative Technologies (https://eudl.eu/journal/ct). The Special Issue based on the previous (first) edition of SIIDS can be found at: https://eudl.eu/issue/ct/7/23

PAPER Submission:

For the Papers track, please submit an extended abstract (800-1200 words). Authors may submit their abstract in any scholarly layout as a PDF file. Papers will be double-blind peer reviewed by at least 2 reviewers.

Format of presentations:

  • Participants can present
    • online (using video conferencing, independently of evolution of COVID-19 restrictions)
    • or presentially (if COVID-19 restrictions are lifted).
  • Duration of the oral presentations will be announced at a later date.
