2nd ConGAS International Symposium on
Gesture Interfaces for Multimedia Systems
http://www.leeds.ac.uk/icsrim/gims
9 May 2006, 09:30 to 17:30: Paper Session at "The Venue", Leeds College of Music, 3 Quarry Hill, Leeds LS2 7PD, UK

in collaboration with FUSE Leeds 2006
The aim of this symposium is to explore emerging technologies and applications
in gesture controlled multimedia systems, expressive gesture analysis, modelling
and synthesis; to increase awareness and exchange views and experiences in the
use of gesture interface and interactive multimedia technologies, with particular
interests in performing arts. Topic of interests include but not limited to
gesture sensing, tracking, analysis of expressive gesture, modelling, synthesis
of expressive gesture, animation, mapping strategies and many others, with special
focus on distributed and collaborative performance and e-learning.
The symposium is designed to have an informal atmosphere to promote discussion
and also offer opportunity to provide demo and performances on the 2nd day (10
May 2006. 4pm-7:40pm).
