and for art curators, CHArt: Computers and the History of Art:
CALL FOR PAPERS: CHArt 28TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Display: Consume: Respond - Digital Engagement with Art
Thursday 15 - Friday 16 November 2012, Central London venue TBC
This year CHArt is looking at how new developments in information and
communications technology affect the ways in which we engage with art. New
forms of digital display or emerging modes of viewing art may have profound
effects on both our understanding of the artwork itself (the way we consume
it) and our ability or appetite for describing, curating and managing it (how
we respond to it).
CHArt invites papers that examine emerging practice and where it impacts
upon digital art practice, research and curation. Areas for consideration
include:
* Control of authorship, ownership and access
* Collaboration and the interdisciplinary break-down
* Participation, quick response and interaction
* Consumption, re-use and mashup
* Mobile technology, apps and education
* Connections between art, interface design, usability and user
experience
* Globalisation, agility, dissemination and big data
* Liquidity and permeability of digital culture
Submission deadline Wednesday June 20, 2012.

Hi all,
Museum & Mobile is an interesting one focusing on apps. An important source
