SMC-22 gathers three conferences in one: the International Faust Conference (IFC), the Sound and Music Computing Conference (SMC), and the Journées de l'Informatique Musicale (JIMs). SMC and the JIMs (June 8-11, 2022) are literally merged. A special half a day session in French targeting young researchers is organized in parallel of the SMC main track though. IFC will take place on June 7-8, 2022.
SMC-22
The SMC-22 conference took place on June 8-11, 2022 at Télécom Saint-Étienne at the heart of the Cité du design. Following the Covid-19 pandemic, we proposed a new innovative format for the conference encouraging interactions between attendees as well as between academia and the industry. All paper presentations will have a poster/demo format (short -- 5 mins -- oral presentation followed by a poster/demo session). Each presenter had a booth assigned to him where he was able to carry out demos and talk about his project in the format he chose. A bar remained open during all poster sessions. Pre-recorded video presentations were also made available on the conference website for those attending the conference remotely. Beside that, 20 minutes lightning talks (linked to a paper or not) were offered. General topics related to the field of music technology, sound and music computing, etc. were encouraged. Finally, keynote adresses were offered as well.
