2nd International Seminar on the Foundations of Speech (SEFOS II) 2022 

Theme: Articulation and Prosody: Between Interface and Integration 

Date: 20-21 May 2022, Sønderborg, Denmark

The links between articulation and prosody are a subject of growing interest. The growing interest is, among other things, driven by increasingly powerful measurement, analysis and recording techniques, by the discovery of syntagmatic and paradigmatic structures in prosody and the simultaneous undermining of strictly linear-segmental models in articulation, as well as by the rapid rise of speech technology and the associated increasing relevance of emotions, speaking styles, attitudes, social hierarchies, social-role marking, etc. But, how far have we really come in understanding the links between articulation and prosody?  

 

As a satellite meeting to the 11th Speech Prosody, the 2nd International Seminar on the Foundations of Speech (SEFOS II) will be a forum to discuss these questions. Continuing the successful concept of the first SEFOS, SEFOS II shall again be a strongly interdisciplinary event. We therefore cordially invite not only all members of the speech-science (and speech-prosody) communities to take part in SEFOS II, but also interested members from related fields such as general linguistics, medicine, audiology, psychology, rhetoric, pedagogy, language/speech technology, and engineering sciences.
