SUBMISSION DETAILS

Participants are required to send a submission in a form of an extended abstract (500 – 1000 words) answering the following questions: Is there a gap between sound designers and UX researchers? How we might fill this communication gap by using new methodologies? We encourage submission reflecting on the first three stages of design thinking (empathize, define, ideate) but we don’t restrict just to this three. Participants should briefly describe their background, approach and experience of incorporating human-centred design, sound and ethnographic approaches early on into the design thinking process.

Submitted papers will be reviewed by the organisers and the authors of the most adequate submissions will be invited and notified of acceptance shortly after the submission deadline.
