We are also offering virtual\/online booths for exhibitions\/demos, which will further expand the interaction and networking possibilities. With these initiatives, we would like to showcase significant advances in research and development, technologies and real-world experiences that have industrial applicability. Contributions concerning business cases, marketing and market insights, case studies, best practices and lessons learned are also welcome. We welcome interesting contributions (presentations and\/or booth\/exhibition proposals) on all relevant topics covered by IMX, and provide the following non-exhaustive list for inspiration:<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Audience understanding<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic focuses on advances in audience engagement with media content as a rapidly evolving activity across diverse platforms, devices, and timeframes. It welcomes contributions that seek to understand audiences using a rich variety of analytic approaches including sensing audiences, sentiment analysis, and measuring and monitoring the quality of experience. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, consumption trends and behaviors in young audiences, sharing practices and communication strategies, identifying engagement patterns across diverse genres, platforms and demographics, scheduled versus on-demand content consumption, binge viewing, and multi-platform engagement.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Immersive and interactive content and experiences<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic is suitable for papers where the primary contribution is the introduction of novel ways of experiencing interactive media content. This includes new forms of media content (e.g. VR, AR, MR, XR, 360\u00b0, Metaverse, live-streaming etc.) consumed in diverse ways including across multiple screens, platforms, and in immersive theatres. Application areas include entertainment and information including interactive and generative documentaries, transmedia storytelling, volumetric filmmaking, live performance broadcasts and object-based media productions. Papers in other application areas, such as education, healthcare, wellbeing and governance and decision-making, are also welcome.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Technologies, systems, and interfaces<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic focuses on technologies, systems, and interfaces that improve and advance our interactions with media content online, at home, or on the move. It encourages submissions describing technical advancements in streaming systems, content synchronization for multi-platform delivery, and recommendation and companion apps. Additional areas for consideration include games engines for content delivery, location-based and context-aware applications and services and object-based media.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Production tools and workflows<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic solicits papers describing procedural advances in the preparation, design, and development of media experiences. Areas of interest include new production processes for TV, online video, VR, AR, XR, and 360\u00b0 formats. Novel tools and workflows using motion capture, volumetric capture and animation are encouraged, as are the presentations of innovative authoring and data-driven tools for interactive or multi-platform content development. In addition to papers describing technical innovations, this topic area is also interested in innovations originating from design and humanities perspectives detailing the authoring process for writing interactive content and the human-centered design methods used to realize these narratives.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>AI and machine learning<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic focuses on the use of machine learning and\/or artificial intelligence techniques to capture, generate, or understand social media experiences and includes areas such as verification and verification scamming, information diffusion, monitoring media bias, misinformation and fake news, predictability of real-world events, and crowd-sourcing and collective intelligence in rich media systems.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Business models and marketing<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic focuses on the new business, marketing, purchasing, subscription, and monetizing strategies encountered in the new media landscape of TV and online video.

This area welcomes papers from a wide variety of theoretical and analytical perspectives examining structured reality TV, social media manipulation and targeting, media convergence and platform monopolies, intellectual property, remix culture, fan culture, media activism and participation politics, or tactical media practices. In addition, research concerning media violence, social media addiction, or issues of bias and ethics would also be appropriate for this topic.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><span style=\"color: #e63095;\"><strong>Disruptive concepts and video-centric art<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This topic focuses on disruptive media practices that seek to challenge traditional media consumption patterns and expand spectator experiences.
