Workshop Goals

The goals for the workshop are as follows.

Follow-up goals include the publication of a collection of revised and extended submissions as papers in a journal special issue or book.

Overview

Music is an evolutionarily deep-rooted, abstract, real-time, complex, non-verbal, social activity. Consequently, interaction design in music can be a valuable source of challenges and new ideas for HCI.

This workshop will reflect on the latest research in Music and HCI (music interaction for short), with the aim of strengthening the dialogue between the music interaction community and the wider HCI community. We will explore recent ideas from music interaction that may contribute new perspectives to general HCI practice, and conversely, recent HCI research in non-musical domains with implications for music interaction. We will also identify any concerns of Music Interaction that may require unique approaches.

Contributors engaged in research in any area of Music Interaction or HCI who would like to contribute to a sustained widening of the dialogue between the distinctive concerns of the Music Interaction community and the wider HCI community are encouraged to submit a position paper.

In the interest of developing dialogue, as well as seeking submissions from Music Interaction researchers already familiar with mainstream HCI, we encourage submissions from cutting edge Music Interaction researchers who are less familiar with HCI, but who believe their work may have wider implications for interactivity, and who would like to explore such connections through the workshop.
