padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> ICAD is
a highly interdisciplinary academic conference with relevance to
researchers, practitioners, musicians, and students interested
in the design of sounds to support tasks, improve performance,
guide decisions, augment awareness, and enhance experiences. It
is unique in its singular focus on auditory displays and the
array of perception, technology, and application areas that this
encompasses. Like its predecessors, ICAD 2016 will be a
single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or
affiliation requirements.</div>

padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> ICAD
2016-the 22nd International Conference on Auditory Display-will
be held at the Australian National University in Canberra,
Australia, from July 2 to 8, 2016. The conference venue is the
ANU School of Music, in the downtown centre of Canberra.
Workshops and the graduate student ThinkTank (doctoral
consortium) will be on the weekend of July 2 and 3, before the
main conference.</div>
<div style="position: relative; margin: 0px 20px 0px 40px;
padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> Note
that ICAD is back-to-back with the conference on New Interfaces
for Musical Expression (NIME) which will be held in Brisbane the
following week, so international attendees can attend two
international conferences for the one trip to Australia!</div>

INFORMATION DESIGN</h2>
<div style="position: relative; margin: 0px 20px 0px 40px;
padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> The
designed world is rapidly replacing the natural world. Design
has been called the "third culture" and has been distinguished
from the Sciences and Arts by Nigel Cross in terms of</div>
<ul class="">
<li style="list-style: disc;" class=""><i class="">things to
know</i>: the natural world in science, human experience in
art, and the artificial world in design.</li>
<li style="list-style: disc;" class=""><i class="">ways of
knowing</i>: rationality and objectivity in science,
reflection and subjectivity in art, and imagination and
practicality in design.</li>
<li style="list-style: disc;" class=""><i class="">ways of
finding out</i>: experiment and analysis in science,
criticism and evaluation in art, and modelling and synthesis
in design.</li>
</ul>
<div style="position: relative; margin: 0px 20px 0px 40px;
padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> This
year's theme - Sonic Information Design - has the aspiration
that artificial sounds may be designed to make the world a
better place. Like other design disciplines, Sonic Information
Design takes a synergetic user-centred view of the relationship
between artefacts, those that are affected by them, and the
social contexts in which they occur. A Design orientation pays
particular attention to the phenomenology of user experience -
including physical, cognitive, emotional, and aesthetic issues;
the relationship between form, function, and content; and
emerging concepts such as fun, playfulness and design futures.
Practice-based research is considered as a generative process of
exploration, speculation and discovery, with outcomes that can
be provisional, contingent and aspirational, while aiming for
richer, more situated understandings that lead to the
advancement of knowledge and the proliferation of new realities.</div>
<div style="position: relative; margin: 0px 20px 0px 40px;
padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> Sonic
Information Design draws on theoretical approaches from multiple
disciplines to guide hypothesis testing at multiple points
during an iterative process -what Bill Gaver calls "humble
theory". Sonic Information Design recognises usefulness as
critical for evaluating artefacts, and the perceptual alignment
with data characteristics as critical for effective designs.</div>
<div style="position: relative; margin: 0px 20px 0px 40px;
padding: 0px; line-height: 16px; z-index: 4;" class=""> ICAD
2016 invites contributions that take a design approach,
introduce design theory and apply design methods to Auditory
Display and Data Sonification, with a view to building a
conceptually robust foundation for Sonic Information Design.</div>
