Contact: fabienne.rudolph at stud.h-da.de

Deadline for submission: March 1, 2012
Notification: April 20, 2012

Proposals are invited for roundtable discussions, workshops, papers/posters,
applied and artistic contributions, relating, but not limited to the
conference¹s main focus. The conference¹s official language will be English.

Providing a specially positioned ³Next Generation²-thread, the conference is
very interested, to create a forum for young scholars, scientists, artists
as well as for students, and encourages them to send in their proposals.
Please send abstracts for roundtable discussions, papers/posters, workshops
& proposals for compositions or other artistic contributions by March 1,
2012.

As keynote presenters we expect Bill Fontana, R. Murray Schafer, Hildegard
Westerkamp et al.

Please note, that our venue is situated not far from Frankfurt airport in
beautiful historic surroundings, providing not only the productive frame for
an interesting conference, but also attractive landscapes, very good wine,
culinary highlights, therefore good conditions for exchange and
conviviality. All this makes, too, a central starting point for your
summerbreak, be it locally, nationally or internationally.

We hope to welcome you in summer on our Media Campus Dieburg of Hochschule
Darmstadt.

Best,
Sabine Breitsameter
