Jamoma spatialization workshop at BEK in Bergen 2007

Topic of the workshop

Spatialisation is a key area for current research and development in Jamoma, with development aiming at support for various methods of spatialisation and a standardized interface for interacting with them. Development of SpatDIF (Spatialisation Description Interchange Format) has been proposed as a standardized protocol for communicating spatial control data. Being based on Open Sound Control, SpatDIF also relates to other standards such as SDIF (Sound Description Interchange Format) and GDIF (Gestural Description Interchange Format).

The workshop will be focusing on discussions and development concerning:
