+# NIME 2024: Call For Papers/Posters/Demos
+
+We welcome submissions of original research on scientific and artistic development and use of new interfaces for musical expression.
+
+There are four different paper submission categories:
+
+Full paper (up to 5000 words in proceedings, recorded-video, optional demo/poster)
+Short paper (up to 3000 words in proceedings, recorded-video, optional demo/poster)
+Poster paper (up to 2000 words in proceedings, recorded-video, poster presentation)
+Demo paper (up to 2000 words in proceedings, recorded-video, demo presentation. The paper should include a link to audio-visual documentation showcasing the technology and/or activity to be demonstrated.)
+Word counts include all the text starting from the abstract. It excludes references and any text inside images and tables. Word count includes the abstract, headings, and all captions.
+
+Applicants can choose their own preferred submission category. Based on the review process the chairs can move a submission to a different category which will then be communicated with the applicants.

+Paper Review Process:
+
+All paper submissions will be subjected to a rigorous double-blind peer review process by an international committee of experts. All of the submitted papers should demonstrate rigorous research methodology and will be evaluated according to the following criteria: novelty, academic quality, appropriateness of topic, importance, readability, ethical standards, and paper organization. Authors should also familiarize themselves with the NIME statements on diversity and environmental issues.
+
+The review process is as follows:
+
+Each paper submission will be assigned to at least 3 reviewers for independent evaluation.
+A meta-reviewer will moderate a discussion amongst the reviewers, write a summary review, and recommend whether to accept the paper.
+The paper chairs will make the final decision on paper acceptance and will inform the author(s) of their decision along with the reviewers’ comments.
+Please note this review process is double-blind, meaning reviewers remain anonymous to the authors and vice-versa. It is expected that authors respect the NIME Ethical guidelines for NIME publications.
+
+If you’d like to register as a NIME reviewer (or are unsure if you’re already a reviewer), please register as a reviewer using this form

+## Submission Guide:
+
+Papers
+
+NIME uses the CHI template for submissions. You can edit it using LaTeX, or as a Word document. Templates for both LaTeX and Word can be found here. We recommend using a service like Overleaf to edit and complete your submission.
+
+## To submit:
+
+Export and download your Latex document or Word document as a PDF. Note that your submission must be anonymised!
+If you don’t already have an account for NIME’s conference management system (CMT), create one.
+Create a submission for NIME 2024 in CMT3.
+Include your title, abstract and co-authors, choose the categorisation for your submission, and comply with the NIME ethics requirements. Add your final, anonymised PDF.
+Note: The deadline to create a submission is January 31, 2024. A PDF is not required at that time.
+
+You will then have until February 7 to upload your paper as a PDF, and complete your submission.
+
