The 7th International Conference on the Histories of Media Art, Science
and Technology
**KREMS|GÖTTWEIG|VIENNA, Austria - November 23 - 25, 2017**

** Early Bird Registration still open **
The 7th International Conference on the Histories of Media Art, Science
and Technology - RE:TRACE - will be hosted by the Department for Image
Science and held jointly at Danube University, Göttweig Abbey and the
Austrian Academy of Sciences, Vienna. Following Banff 2005, Berlin 2007,
Melbourne 2009, Liverpool 2011, Riga 2013 and Montreal 2015, the Media
Art History Boards and Co-Chairs invite you to attend Re:Trace 2017 in
Krems/Göttweig/Vienna.
More than a decade after the first conference founded the field, which
is now recognized internationally as a significant historical inquiry at
the intersection of art, science, and technology, Media Art Histories is
now firmly established as a dynamic area of interdisciplinary study
guided by changing media and research priorities, drawing a growing
community of scholars, artists and artist-researchers.
Immersed in both contemporary and historiographical aspects of the
digital world, we explore the most immediate socio-cultural questions of
our time: from body futures, information society, and media
(r)evolutions, to environmental interference, financial virtualization,
and surveillance. And we do so through a fractal lens of inter- and
trans-disciplinarity, bridging art history, media studies, neuroscience,
psychology, sociology, and beyond. MediaArtHistories is a field whose
theory, methods, and objects of study interweave with and overlay other
disciplines.
