Human Interaction with Auditory Displays<\/i><\/font>
April 7th 2010<\/font>
(with satellite events on 6th and 8th)<\/font>
KTH, Stockholm, Sweden<\/font>
www.interactive-sonification.org<\/a><\/font> <\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\nThe ISon 2010 meeting is the 3rd International workshop on Interactive Sonification, following the initial ISon 2004 workshop held in Bielefeld<\/a> and the previous ISon 2007 workshop in York<\/a>.
\n \nThe meeting offers the chance:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- to meet experts in sonification<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- to present and demonstrate your own research<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- to strengthen your european networking in sonification research<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- to learn about new exciting trends<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\n \nAdditional goals of the meeting are: \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- to relate research on the topic of gestural control of auditory displays to interactive sonification<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- to survey the requirements for building Interactive Sonification systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- to establish a network of interested researchers in the field and exchange experiences<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\n \nHigh quality will be assured by a peer-reviewing process, and besides a web publication we might decide to transform the proceedings into a special journal issue, as in the 1st ISon meeting, see IEEE Multimedia Special Issue on Interactive Sonification.<\/a>
\nISon 2010 edition is supported by COST IC0601 Action on Sonic Interaction Design (SID)<\/a>.\n\n<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nAbout ISon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n \nSonification & Auditory Displays are increasingly becoming an established technology for exploring data, monitoring complex processes, or assisting exploration and navigation of data spaces. Sonification addresses the auditory sense by transforming data into sound, allowing the human user to get valuable information from data by using their natural listening skills. The main differences of sound displays over visual displays are that sound can:\n \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Represent frequency responses in an instant (as timbral characteristics)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Represent changes over time, naturally<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Allow microstructure to be perceived<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Rapidly portray large amounts of data<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Alert listener to events outside the current visual focus<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Holistically bring together many channels of information<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Auditory displays typically evolve over time since sound is inherently a temporal phenomenon. Interaction thus becomes an integral part of the process in order to select, manipulate, excite or control the display, and this has implications for the interface between humans and computers. In recent years it has become clear that there is an important need for research to address the interaction with auditory displays more explicitly. Interactive Sonification is the specialized research topic concerned with the use of sound to portray data, but where there is a human being at the heart of an interactive control loop. Specifically it deals with:\n \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- interfaces between humans and auditory displays<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- mapping strategies and models for creating coherency between action and reaction (e.g. acoustic feedback, but also combined with haptic or visual feedback)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- perceptual aspects of the display (how to relate actions and sound, e.g. cross-modal effects, importance of synchronisation) <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- applications of Interactive Sonification <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- evaluation of performance, usability and multi-modal interactive systems including auditory feedback<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Although we apply a spotlight on particular situations where there is real-time interaction with sonification systems, the usual community for exploring all aspects of auditory display is ICAD <\/a>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nSatellite Events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n \nThere are three satellite events in connection to this workshop.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- A Guided tour of permanent sound installations<\/i> in central Stockholm takes place on the 6th April 2010. \n <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The SID Open Seminar “Voice and Voice Functions” <\/i> takes place on the 8th April 2010.\n <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A Management Committee meeting of the EU COST Action IC0601 SID (Sonic Interaction Design)<\/a> takes place on the 8th April 2010.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\nFor more details about these satellite events please read the workshop programme<\/a>. \n
\n\nThe participation of many international experts to the workshop is expected, and promises that the workshop will be a highly productive event.\n \n<\/p>\n\n\n\nProceedings\/Publication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n \nThe peer-reviewed publications will be published on the web site. We will consider to developing the web proceedings into a special issue of an international journal, as we did in the 2004 ISon workshop.
