I was lucky enough to participate in this wonderful event at Tulane University, and still have the paper version of the proceedings in my office. So here is the relevant information, in case anyone else also wonders about these details:...

Making Motiongrams We are used to visualizing audio with spectrograms, and have been exploring different techniques for visualizing music-related movements in a similar manner....
