RE-CREATE 2015 The 10th anniversary and sixth 
international conference on the histories of 
Media, Art Science and Technology

Hexagram, Concordia University and Université du 
Québec à Montréal in collaboration with 
Media@McGill and CIRMMT- McGill Montréal, Canada. 
5-8 November 
2015 <http://moodle.donau-uni.ac.at/recreate/openconf.php>Re-Create 
CFP Submission Site

Re-Create 2015, the sixth international 
Conference on the Histories of Media, Art Science 
and Technology will mark the 10th Anniversary of 
the Re conference series. Re-Create 2015 is 
devoted to exploring what theories, methodologies 
and techniques can be used to understand past, 
present and indeed, future paradigms of creative 
material practice involving technologies within 
research contexts from a historical and critical 
point of view.


The title Re-Create is an abbreviation for the 
term "research-creation", part of a growing 
international movement which goes by many names: 
"practice-led research," "research-led practice," 
and "artistic research," among others.

While the link between research and practice 
seems to be a new horizon, the media-based arts 
have long been at the intersection of the 
humanities, sciences, and engineering and present 
a critical site in which to take up the changing 
relationships between knowledge, power, and 
economy.

Research normally signifies modes of acquiring 
new knowledge that coherently and systematically 
advance a field and is grounded and validated by 
both social frameworks (peers) and existing 
bodies of knowledge. Similarly, research in 
conjunction with material practice demands that 
making be historically, theoretically and 
methodologically framed and valorized.

Re-Create 2015 seeks to interrogate the 
historical entanglement of research and making 
within a wide and diverse set of international 
sites, disciplines and contexts: from 
non-institutional creative research initiatives 
driven by artists and designers in the streets, 
to the labyrinths of industry funded research 
labs and universities. From unknown or ignored 
histories of research-based practices in Latin 
America, Asia and Indigenous communities to 
government funded initiatives, the conference 
will thus critically explore the ongoing and 
productive tensions between theory, method and 
making in the histories of media, art, science 
and technology.

Potential contributors to the conference should 
focus thematic panel sessions or individual 
papers on one of the following areas of 
concentration:

LAB STUDIES : Studies on how artists and 
designers have historically worked in industry, 
universities and collective, grass roots-based 
research environments

CURATORIAL ACTIONS AND PRACTICES : How have 
research paradigms historically entered into 
curatorial practices and how have they been 
framed, exhibited and articulated?

ANTI-INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH : Historical profiles 
of non-institutionally based research-driven 
explorations.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS : How have theoretical 
paradigms in media, art, science and technology 
historically evolved structuralism in the 1960s 
or media studies to current work in affect 
theory, media archaeology, critical post-humanist 
approaches derived from STS, appropriation and 
remix aesthetics, feminist new materialism, queer 
and postcolonial studies, enactive and

distributed cognition?

METHODOLOGIES : What can methodological tools 
emerging from the human and social sciences like 
ethnography, historiography, archaeology, 
genealogy and other qualitative techniques 
provide to the historical and critical 
positioning of practice?

INTERDISCIPLINARY INTERSECTIONS AND IMPACTS : 
Exploration of the formation and rise of 
interdisciplinary research fields (image science, 
sound studies, science studies, sensory studies, 
environmental studies) and their impact on the 
construction of media art histories.

DIGITAL HUMANITIES : What is the historical 
relationship between the digital humanities and 
the histories of media, art, science and 
technology?

SITES: How historically have sites of research 
and practice in media art, science and technology 
evolved outside of the predominant spheres of 
Europe and North America and what forms have they 
taken?


CONFERENCE PROGRAM

The conference program will include competitively 
selected peer-reviewed individual papers, panel 
presentations and poster sessions as well as a 
number of keynotes and invited speakers and a 
parallel satellite program of events with 
Hexagram partners including core cultural 
institutions in Montreal. In the interest of 
maintaining a concentrated conference program, 
there will be a series of plenary sessions as 
well as accompanying poster sessions. Each of the 
plenaries as well as the poster sessions will mix 
together scholars and practitioners representing 
different cultural perspectives. The conference 
will be held in English and French, with live 
translation.

CALL FOR PROPOSALS

Re-Create 2015 welcomes contributions from 
researchers, artists, designers, scholars and 
technologists working across diverse disciplines, 
sites and practices. We particularly encourage 
scholars and creators from international contexts 
outside of Europe and North America.

ABOUT THE CONTEXT AND THE HOST

The conference will take place in Montreal hosted 
by Hexagram, the international network for media, 
art, design and digital culture 
(<http://hexagram.ca/>http://hexagram.ca). It is 
the largest network of its kind in Canada and one 
of the largest internationally dedicated to 
research-led creative practices. Ten years after 
the inaugural Re-Fresh conference at the Banff 
New Media Institute in 2005, the return of the 
conference to Canada and specifically to Quebec, 
offers a pertinent context to address the 
evolution of research in the histories of media, 
art, science and technology 
(<http://www.mediaarthistory.org/mah-conf-series>http://www.mediaarthistory.org/mah-conf-series).The


conference will be held across the two core 
Hexagram sites at Concordia University and the 
Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). The 
venues are within walking distance from each 
other, centrally located in vibrant, downtown 
Montreal - the digital arts and culture capital 
of North America.

SUBMISSIONS

250 word abstracts of proposals, panel 
presentations and posters should be submitted in 
either Text, RTF, Word or PDF formats. Texts can 
be submitted in French and in English. The 
DEADLINE for submissions is January 12, 2015. 
Submitters will be informed by mid February 2015.
