Campinas, Brazil, May 5th, 2008
[Abstract submission deadline: February 17th, 2008]
Keywords: emotion, expressivity, prosody, music, acquisition,
perception, production,
interpretation, cognitive sciences, neurosciences, acoustic analysis.

DESCRIPTION:
Speech and music conceal a treasure of “expressive potential” for they
can activate sequences of varied
emotional experiences in the listener. Beyond their semiotic
differences, speech and music share acoustic
features such as duration, intensity, and pitch, and have their own
internal organization, with their own
rhythms, colors, timbres and tones.
The aim of this workshop is to question the connections between various
forms of expressivity, and the
prosodic and gestural dimensions in the spheres of music and speech. We
will first tackle the links
between speech and music through enaction and embodied cognition. We
will then work on computer
modelling for speech and music synthesis. The third part will focus on
musicological and aesthetic
perspectives. We will end the workshop with a round table in order to
create a dialogue between the
various angles used to apprehend prosody and expressivity in both speech
and music.

FRAMEWORK:
This workshop will be the starting point of a string of events on the
relations between language and music:
May 16th: Prosody, Babbling and Music (Ecole Normale Supérieure Lettres
et Sciences Humaines, Lyon)
June 17-18th: Prosody of Expressivity in Music and Speech (IRCAM, Paris)
September 25th and 26th: Semiotics and microgenesis of verbal and
musical forms (RISC, Paris).
Our aim is to make links between several fields of research and create a
community interested in the
relations between music and language. The project will be materialized
in a final publication of the
keynote papers of those four events.

SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:
The workshop will host about ten posters.
Authors should submit an extended abstract to: beller em ircam.fr in pdf
format by January 30, 2008.
We will send an email confirming the reception of the submission. The
suggested abstract length is
maximum 1 page, formatted in standard style.
The authors of the accepted abstracts will be allocated as poster
highlights. Time will be allocated
in the programme for poster presentations and discussions.
Before the workshop, the extended abstracts (maximum 4 pages) will be
made available to a broader
audience on the workshop web site. We also plan to maintain the web page
after the workshop and
encourage the authors to submit slides and posters with relevant links
to their personal web pages.
