FULL PROGRAM
Theme
This year’s theme is Sonification // Spatialization, a blending of ICAD’s expertise in sonification with EMPAC’s expertise in spatialized audio. Spatialization offers sonification additional dimensions for conveying information. EMPAC’s state-of-the-art spatial audio systems include a 512-channel wave field synthesis array with the highest spatial aliasing frequency in the world and multiple permanently installed fourth-order ambisonic arrays. The conference will host a special session on spatialization in sonification as well as demonstrations of some of EMPAC’s systems and capabilities over the course of the week.
