Call for Exhibition Entries and Papers
ACM Multimedia 2008 is the premier annual multimedia conference,
covering all aspects of multimedia computing. The ACM MM Interactive
Art Program connects arts and multimedia communities, creating a
stage for exploring, discussing, and pushing the limits for the
advancement of multimedia technology through the arts, and the arts
through multimedia technology.
This year's fifth version of the Interactive Art Program will consist
of an art exhibition at Vancouver's Science World and a conference
track. We invite artists working with digital media and researchers
in technical areas to submit their original contributions:
* Multimedia art exhibition: We seek artworks exploring the
theme of "BorderZones" using multimedia to shift, traverse,
intersect, and combine genres and modalities to provoke the emergence
of new frameworks. We particularly seek interactive multimedia works
that by combining multiple media, technologies, and novel technical
ideas, realise strong artistic concepts that give a new perspective
on the topic of the exhibition.
Deadline for submission to the Art Exhibition: April 11, 2008
* Conference track: we solicit papers describing interactive
multimedia artworks, tools, applications, and technical approaches
for creative uses of multimedia content and technology, and
management of art-related media collections. Emphasis will be given
to new works that describe the creative processes within art, in
forms such as interactive experiences and creativity support tools.
We also invite papers on works that are interactive, particularly
works that exploit non-conventional human-computer interfaces or
sensors in new and emerging areas. We strongly encourage papers with
a strong technical content written by artists. Papers may be long (10
pages) or short (2 to 4 pages). Long papers are presented in front of
an audience and short papers are presented in poster format.
Deadline for full papers to the Arts Program Conference Track
