Fri 2  Departures

2  General advice for speakers
 
It is  good tradition  of our  STG to  read and discuss in
English (everyone is very tolerant in this respect) and to
prepare papers for only 20 minutes. We would rather prefer
to enlarge  the time  for discussions  instead: up  to now
there should be 40 minutes for paper and discussion. Spea-
kers should respect this since they have enough opportuni-
ty to elaborate also  during demonstrations in the  after-
noon. We even  must REQUEST them  to do this  because many
papers and articles of other conferences (not of our STG!)
remained rather academic. If  you wish to speak  about an-
nouncements and intentions, there is also a place for this
during the traditionally very  vivid evenings but NOT  du-
ring your paper.
 
We highly  appreciate further  abstracts (see  example Peo
Oertli below).
 
 
3  Accomodation:
 
Since the meeting begins at the Viennese term, there is no
opportunity  to  hire  student  hostels. We have, however,
looked for some unexpensive  rooms and ask you  to reserve
personally as  soon as  possible. Some  members have  been
knowing each other and might wish to share a room (see HO-
TEL Goldener  Baer) or  try to  make arrangements  to find
their room mate at the day of arrival. In any case, please
mention the STG-meeting when you book!

WORKSHOPS/Demonstrations already announced:
 
Essen Software....
RHYTHMICS (Oertli)
....................
 
6   First abstract:
 
Peo Oertli-Kassim  will present  different representation-
methods of music by the notational-program "RHYTHMICS".
 
Except of notations for percussion-instruments, for  which
the program  was originally  designed, melodic  notation -
even polyphonic  and polyrhythmic  - are  now possible  in
different forms: chiffre- and letter-notation, tabulature-
notation, octave- step- and staff-notation.
 
As  decided  during  the  Bratislava-Meeting,  it would be
helpful (or at least make sense) that the presented  exam-
ples are known to  the participants to improve  perception
and to allow comparisons for a satisfactory result of  the
meeting.
 
Peo would therefore be very pleased if you could send  him
(as soon as  possible) one written/printed/screen  printed
and if possible taped example  to be included in his  pre-
sentation. He would in exchange send you one of this exam-
ples for your presentation.
 
Address: Peo  Oertli-Kassim, Sonnenhofstr.1,  8952 Schlie-
ren, Switzerland. Tel CH-01 730 37 37 or 01 241 15 16.
 
For the last reason also Dr. Lubej has prepared an  audio-
kassette for those  who wish to  contribute to the  (main)
topic of DSP.  The examples should  then be analyzed  with
the respective software.
