Audio Mostly - a Conference on Interaction with Sound

Audio in all its forms - music, sound effects and dialog - holds tremendous potential to engage, convey narrative, inform, dramatize and enthral. During two days in October 2006 the first Audio Mostly conference took place and attracted about 35 participants from several European countries and USA. Audio Mostly 2007 took place at the Fraunhofer Institute in Ilmenau, Germany and came back to Piteå in 2008. 2009 years conference took place in Glasgow Caledonian University in Scotland.2010 the conference will be held in cooperation with ACM in Piteå again.

The Audio Mostly Conference provide a venue to explore the unexploited potential of audio as content driver in game contexts, and aim to help open up this area of thinking by bringing together game designers, audio experts, content creators, and technology and behavioural researchers. Through this forum, varied experts could discuss developments and new potentials for audio gaming in many areas such as entertainment, health and fitness, education, industrial training, serious gaming, etc. This is also a venue to present sonic solutions to development and design challenges in low resolutions scenarios or environments where screens are unavailable.
