SONIC INTERACTION DESIGN
A SPECIAL ISSUE OF
THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMAN-COMPUTER STUDIES (IJHCS)
Guest Editors:
Davide Rocchesso (IUAV University, Italy)
Stefania Serafin (Aalborg University Copenhagen, Denmark)
Sonic Interaction design (SID) is an emerging field that is positioned at the
intersection of auditory display, ubiquitous computing, interaction design and
interactive arts. This field is devoted to the privileged role the auditory channel can
assume in exploiting the convergence of computing, communication and interactive
technologies.
This special issue aims to present a set of high-quality, high-impact, original
research results in sonic interaction design and related areas. Papers illustrating
new research directions or a broad research agenda for sonic interaction design are
welcome.
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
-Design methods for sonic interaction
-Product sound design
-Interactive sonification
-Auditory display
-Sonic interaction for mobile devices
-Responsive sonic environments
-Perceptual and cognitive studies of sonic interaction
-Emotion and aesthetics in sonic interaction
-Evaluation of sonic interactions
Articles must be based on original research, although extended versions of
conference papers may be acceptable if they contain at least 50% new material. It is
expected that the special issue will contain some articles extended from papers of
the 2008 CHI Workshop on Sonic Interaction Design (http://www.cost-
sid.org/wiki/CHIworkshop), but other original articles are also encouraged.
Complete articles should be submitted by the deadline of September 20, 2008 (EES
will be open as of 15 August). Papers will be subject to the full IJHCS review
process, with decisions expected by December 20, 2008.
