[Infovis] Call for Participation: 1st Workshop on Audio-Visual Analytics on Sept 3, 2021

[Aigner Wolfgang]

The 1st Workshop on Audio-Visual Analytics will focus on identifying research gaps for integrating sonification and visualization. It will be hosted at Audio Mostly 2021, the interdisciplinary conference on design and experience of interaction with sound.

Time: September 3, 2021 14:30 – 17:30 CEST (8:30 – 11:30 am EDT)
Place: virtually on Zoom
Access Link: YouTube Stream - please choose Day 3: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCp8hfYyfdnWqOd7p6ccw-g


The workshop aims to build a community of researchers from both the visualization and the sonification communities and to identify research gaps for the systematic combination of visualization and sonification. Attending the workshop and the Audio Mostly conference is *free*: https://audiomostly.com

Our workshop will take place on the 3rd of September between 2:30 pm and 5:30 pm (CEST, Italy).

The Audio-Visual Analytics workshop will be a fully remote, virtual event due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and in alignment with the decision not to host a physical meeting for Audio Mostly 2021. Group and plenary discussions will use the virtual platforms Zoom and Miro.

We scheduled the larger part of the day for group and plenary discussions and it is open to all Audio Mostly 2021 attendees. The workshop will be organized along parallel working sessions formed around predefined topic streams (Theory, Design Process, Tools, and Evaluation). The participants will be able to choose between these topics based on their interests. We expect the workshop to result in a collection of open research questions on how to combine visualization and sonification. 

An already confirmed follow-up workshop at IEEE VIS in October 2021 drives this further towards a research agenda for a combined design theory. Details about both workshops can be found here: https://audio-visual-analytics.github.io/am2021.html

We are looking forward to see many of you this Friday!
