Abstract
This paper investigates the representation of women researchers
and artists in the conferences of the International Community for
Auditory Display (ICAD). In the absence of an organized membership
mechanism and / or publicly available records of conference
attendees, this topic was approached through the study of publication
and authorship patterns of female researchers in ICAD conferences.
Temporal analysis showed that, even though there has been
an increase in the number of publications co-authored by female
researchers, the annual percentage of female authors remained in
relatively unchanged levels (mean = 17.9%) throughout the history
of ICAD conferences. This level, even though low, remains within
the reported percentages of female representation in other communities
with related disciplines, such as the International Computer
Music Association (ICMA) and the Conferences of the International
Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR), and significantly
higher than in more audio engineering-related communities,
such as the Audio Engineering Society (AES).
