http://mitpress2.mit.edu/e-journals/LEA/LEA2004/authors.htm#mmedia
The Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No:
1071-4391) is inviting papers and artworks that
showcase MultiMedia Performance. This category
includes works which span a range of practices,
which challenge the way performance has
heretofore been defined and examines the ways in
which new technologies have opened up the meaning
and practice of performance. We expect that
performance includes a live component, be it on
line, in an interactive installation, or on stage.
LEA encourages international artists / academics
/ researchers / students to submit their
proposals for consideration. We particularly
encourage young authors and contributors from
outside North America and Europe to send
proposals for articles/gallery/artists statements
(if applicable).
Expressions of interest and outline should include:
- A brief description of proposed text (300 words)
- A brief author biography
- Any related URLs
- Contact details
In the subject heading of the email message,
please use “Name of Artist/Project Title: LEA
MultiMedia Performance – Date Submitted”. Please
cut and paste all text into body of email
(without attachments).
Deadline for expressions of interest: 10 December 2004
Deadline for proposals: 15 February 2005
Please send proposals or queries to:

What is LEA?
-------------
For over a decade, Leonardo Electronic Almanac
(ISSN No: 1071-4391) has thrived as an
international peer reviewed electronic journal
and web archive covering the interaction of the
arts, sciences, and technology. LEA emphasizes
rapid publication of recent work and critical
discussion on topics of current excitement. Many
contributors are younger scholars and artists
with a slant on shorter, less academic texts.
Contents include Texts; Artists using new media;
Feature Articles comprised of theoretical and
technical perspectives; the LEA Gallery
exhibiting new media artwork by international
artists; Leonardo Reviews, edited by Michael
Punt, Leonardo Research Abstracts of recent Ph.D.
and Masters theses, curated Galleries of current
new media artwork by international artists, and
Special Issues on topics ranging from New Media
Poetry, to Zero Gravity Art, to the History of
New Media.
The Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA) is jointly
produced by Leonardo, the International Society
for the Arts, Sciences and Technology (ISAST) and
published under the auspices of MIT Press.
