This is the first call for the Creativity & Cognition Conference 2007 (CC2007), which will be held in Washington DC, June 13-15, 2007.

We believe that creativity is a fundamental topic to address the important challenges of knowledge-based societies of the future - and hopefully, CC2007 will make a major contribution in bringing researchers, practitioners, and educators together to advance an understanding of this conference topic, find common themes, and produce rigorous research at the convergence of technology, science, and arts.

November 1. CAFKA.07 Call for Proposals

Our physical connection to objects and spaces is essential to our being in the world: in the environments we inhabit, in the ways we relate to one another, and in the products we create. We ask artists to consider actual or metaphorical possibilities enabled by the haptic connection, whether achieved through exceptional handling of traditional materials or of new media. The exhibition will take place in and around Kitchener City hall for 11 days at the end of September, 2007.

Oct. 16. VIDA 9.0

http://www.telefonica.es/vida

VIDA 9.0 is the eighth edition of an international competition created to reward excellence in artistic creativity in the fields of Artificial Life and related disciplines.


In previous years prizes have been awarded to projects that included autonomous robots, avatars, recursive chaotic algorithms, knowbots, cellular automata, computer viruses, virtual ecologies that evolve with user participation, and works that highlight the social side of Artificial Life. Applicants should refer to awards previously granted at VIDA’s web page (http://www.telefonica.es/vida) to determine suitability of their project.

Some of the issues explored may include, but are not limited to:

- How autonomous agents shape and interpret our data-saturated environment. - How artifacts (robotics, artifitial intelligence, wetware, etc) challenge pre- - How empathy is created between artificial entities and ourselves. - The anthropomorphization of the datasphere and its inhabitants. - How interactive systems may be designed to spark interest in emerging phenomena involving Artificial Life.

Oct. 20 Japan Media Arts Festival

Japan Media Arts Festival is a festival of media arts where works of media arts created using new ways of presentation and distinguished artistic expressions are recognized and creative activities of leading-edge media arts are introduced to a wide audience. Now that a lot of international attention is given to Japanese media art works such as arts, mangas, animations and games, Japan Media Arts Festival, which attempts to establish a new axis of recognition without being constricted by a conventional framework, has received increased attention not only from Japan but also from overseas. The Festival will accept applications from every sphere and will not make distinctions between professional, amateur, independent productions, commercial productions, etc. Beyond the established conventional framework, how far can the potentialities of media arts expand? The Festival requires new creativeness and representational power.

Oct. 20 Call for Projects : STRP - Eindhoven, Netherlands

After a successful first edition, the STRP festival, which took place in Eindhoven, Netherlands at the end of March 2006, is launching a call for projects for its next edition, which will be taking in late April of 2007.

The focus of the festival is the common ground created at the intersection between art, popular culture and technology. The first edition which welcomed over 10 000 visitors, and received very positive attention from the press, made use of performances, installations, lectures, films, etcetera in order to convey this crossroads.

STRP takes place on Strijp-S, the 'holy' ground of the forbidden city of Philips, where in the 20th century numerous technological innovations were made which changed the world. A place where Einstein once worked, the first complete electronic music album was created and the collaboration between le Courboisier and Varese resulted in one of the most interesting amalgamations between art and technology, Le Poeme Electronique for the World Expo in Brussels (1958).


FOR THE 2007 EDITION

STRP is looking for projects, installations, or proposals that concern themselves with interactive art, robotics and/or Live Cinema (in the live cinema category we are looking for projects that rely on both performance and technology in order to become an audio-visual whole). All of the above in a context in which the artistic side is furthered by technology. This year we will also be paying special attention to projects, which involve light in their concept, composition, and/or execution.

The application forms are available in PDF format - http://downloads.strp.nl/strp-call06.pdf RTF format ? http://downloads.strp.nl/strp-call06.rtf
