Description

Working group meeting for registered participants (contact: Baptiste Caramiaux).

The goal of this meeting is to advance on the GDIF-Gesture Description Interchange Format and SpatDIF-Spatial sound Description Interchange Format. Precisely, we will discuss current issues and choices made by the different research groups working with gesture or spatialization data, and decide on further collaborative actions.
