Hearing is deeply intertwined with vision and movement. Beyond that, researchers and artists are mapping out crossmodal associations with touch, smell, feel, and taste, leading to new and fascinating interaction designs, architecture, and culinary experiences, as well as a veritable coral reef of artworks. The interaction, \u201c~sound:senses\u201d, is the core theme of both the festival and the symposium. Keynote speakers are interaction design specialist <a href=\"http:\/\/imi.aau.dk\/~sts\/\">Stefania Serafin<\/a> and crossmodality researcher <a href=\"http:\/\/www.psy.ox.ac.uk\/team\/principal-investigators\/charles-spence\">Charles Spence<\/a>.

Thanks to CLASS director KK Luke for trusting that the Sound &amp; Interactivity project should continue. The ASM team, Honor Harger, Anna Salaman, Nina Ernst, and Stacy Lim, are great partners in crime and passion (or was it science and art?) and pushed us to go further than initially imagined. Invaluable support was provided by ADM chair Vibeke Sorensen and faculty Michael Walsh and Lucas Jodogne, and staff Poh Zhuang Yi,&nbsp;Hong Bee Kuen,&nbsp;Lim Pheng Yew, Muhammad Mustajab Bin Mohamad, Lau Kheng Hock, and Bharat Singh.
