'''Dec. 1''' TERMINAL01 :: CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
 
 
 
Deadline: December 1st, 2006
 
 
 
Year Zero One is seeking submissions for Terminal01 (T01), an interactive networked art exhibition to be lauched at Toronto Pearson International Airport in the spring of 2007. T01 will consist of a custom made kiosk housing a touch-sensitive screen, an audio-video output, an embedded web camera, sensors and projection screen. Artists will be invited to create site-responsive computer generated work based on their experience and interpretation of air travel environs, airports, mobility, flight data and networked communities. Emphasis will be given to works with a generative component or works dealing directly with themes relevant to travel (space-time).
 
 
 
For information, please go to: http://www.year01.com/terminal01/submit.html.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Dec. 12''' EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL
 
 
 
April 25–29 2007
 
Exhibition April 25 - May 20 2007
 
 
 
// CALL FOR ENTRIES
 
 
 
The European Media Art Festival will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2007!
 
 
 
 
 
Ever since its establish- ment, the EMAF has been one of the most influ- ential Media Art forums. As an international meeting point for artists, curators, gallery owners and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a great impact on topics and aesthetics of Media Art. Every year the festival offers a current overview of experimental films, in- stallations, performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from popular subjects and formal experiments to provocative statements.
 
 
 
// WE WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO SUBMIT YOUR FESTIVAL ENTRIES FOR PARTICIPATION BY DECEMBER 12 2006
 
At the festival an international jury will present the ›EMAF Award‹ for a trend-setting work in Media Art and the ›Dialogpreis‹ of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the promotion of intercultural exchanges. Also the jury of the German Federal Association of Film Journalists will be awarding the prize for the best German experimental film.
 
Not only the latest productions will be presented – inventories and perspectives will also be a focal point of the anniversary in 2007. How has digi- talisation changed artistic production? What effects does this have on distribution and market- ing – and also on reception? What are the inter- dependencies between artistic and commercial media production? Have these processes affected aesthetics and contents?
 
We warmly invite you to discuss these and other questions at the festival, to celebrate our anni- versary with us in April 2007 and to discover the fascination of the experimental with us.

'''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.

'''November 30.''' NANOART 2006 Competition
 
 
 
Open to All Artists – Original Electron Microscope Working Image is provided
 
 
 
This is the first ever on-line NanoArt worldwide competition open to all artist 18 years and older. The purpose of this competition is to promote NanoArt as one of the new art disciplines of the 21st Century. NanoArt is a new art form where micro/nanosculptures created by artists/scientists through chemical/physical processes and/or natural micro/nanostructures are visualized with powerful research tools like Scanning Electron Microscopes. The monochromatic electron microscope images are processed further to create a piece of art that can be showcased for a large audience to educate the public with creative images that are appealing and acceptable. To read more about NanoArt and Nanotechnology please visit www.nanoart21.org.
 
 
 
In these days, anyone could have access to these advanced tools at universities or independent labs for an hourly rate. For this competition, the sponsor, nanoart21.org founded by artist/scientist Cris Orfescu (www.absolutearts.com/nanoart), will provide a high resolution monochromatic electron scan. The participating artists will have to alter this image in any artistic way to finish the artistic process and create a NanoArt work.
 
 
 
Submission deadline is November 30, 2006.
 
 
 
The artworks entered this competition will be displayed on-line for voting starting December 1, 2006 through January 31, 2007. Judging is via the Internet and decided by our site visitors. The sponsor reserves the final decision. Winners will be notified and published on-line on February 15, 2007.
 
 
 
One entry is allowed per artist. The Entry Form and the image file for web presentation should be sent by email to nanoart2006@nanoart21.org. The web image file must be .jpg or .gif with the longer dimension of maximum 600 pixels at a resolution of 72 dpi. A Working Image of approximate 3000 x 2300 pixels at a resolution of 72 dpi will be provided by sponsor. This will be the original image (the scanning electron microscope image above) that should be converted by artist in a piece of art. This image will be used by artists for this competition only and is a working vehicle for the artists to exercise their talent and creativity. Copyright for this image remains with the nanoart21.org. Copyright of entered artworks remains with the artist who agrees to grant permission to nanoart21.org to use the submitted material in exhibits on the nanoart21.org web site and other media for marketing and printing.

'''October 15''' call for submissions net_sight 2006
 
 
 
http://mur.at/verein/net_sight
 
 
 
Idea
 
 
 
Since 1998 mur.at has been working on a virtual NetSculpture which is constantly growing and branching out. This widely ramified Net – the leased line net – offers a democratic and unbureaucratic access to new communication and information technologies to people engaged in the artistic and cultural sector in the area of Graz apart from e-business and e-commerce. The NetNodeSculpture includes an infrastructure which allows continuous work of art organisations and people engaged in the cultural sector.
 
 
 
In order to be able to experience the virtual space in real public space, mur.at initiates a contest for making this virtual sculpture - which is spread over Graz like a network - visible for all.
 
 
 
Target of the contest
 
 
 
For the promotion of NetArt and NetCulture mur.at offers the possibility to deal with the community in an artistic way and to implement the winning project.
 
The virtual sculpture will be transferred to a tangible space in order to be visible also as real locality. Therewith the virtual sculpture becomes a sculpture that can be conceived with all senses in the public space of Graz. The sculpture shall be developed and implemented in various media.
 
 
 
Desired form of submitted projects
 
 
 
desired are...
 
 
 
..artistic projects, which refer and use the contents and infrastructure of mur.at, the nodes and/or the mur.at-community.
 
 
 
..artistic projects which excel at using unconventional ideas of „Visualization“.
 
 
 
..unrealised projects from the various areas of art; projects which deal with the subject of a NetSculpture. This can be projected in form of media- and space- installations, sound projects, memorial tablets, photo or video projects, as long as it appears meaningful with regard to the subject.
 
The expression „Visualization“ shall be considered a metaphor and the type of realisation shall not be limited to a specific medium.
 
 
 
Prize money / Implementation
 
 
 
First prize
 
The project which is ranked first by the jury will be implemented from December 2006 to end of May 2007. The budget for the implementation (incl. remuneration) is € 10.000,-.

'''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 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.

'''October 20''' Call for Proposals:Beall Center for Art and Technology
 
 
 
The Beall Center for Art and Technology seeks projects of high artistic merit that use technology in innovative ways. We offer honorarium and project costs of up to $20,000, to realize the project in our 2500 sqf space. We are also interested in collaborating with other institutions to fund projects of larger scale. We are currently soliciting proposals for exhibition years 2007 and 2008.

Artists, curators, or institutions are eligible to submit proposals. Priority is given to cross-disciplinary projects. Artists or organizations that have previously received funding from the Beall Center must wait at least two years before reapplying. Women and artists of color are encouraged to apply.

'''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 Sketches & Posters program provides a forum for new and thought-provoking ideas, techniques, and applications in computer graphics and interactive techniques. This program covers a broad spectrum of topics in art, design, science, and engineering. Targeting the frontiers of these areas, Sketches & Posters encompasses ideas ranging from speculation to academic research, from industrial development and practical tools to behind-the-scenes explanations of commercial and artistic work. Submitted abstracts describe the work in a single page, but the goal of these programs to is present and discuss the work in person at SIGGRAPH 2007.

Sketches & Posters offers two distinct presentation styles: as either a scheduled oral presentation (a "sketch") in an auditorium, or as visual materials (a "poster") on display in the convention center. Poster presenters will be asked to appear with their posters (and/or similar materials) to meet interested viewers at intervals during the conference.

MARCH31 : TURBULENCE CALL FOR PROPOSALS

http://transition.turbulence.org/comp_07/guidelines.htm

CONCEPT: MIXED REALITIES calls for proposals that challenge our preconceptions of what constitutes "reality." It asks producers to create environments that invite participants to act/perform in multiple spaces.

Information and telecommunications technologies allow us to be continuously connected via the Internet or mobile networks. We engage one another via e-mail, chat, the interlinked pages of the World Wide Web, and SMS. We create identities, and forge relationships and communities. Boundaries between real space and virtual space blur; near and far reverse themselves. Passive consumption of art is replaced by the performative--art that requires (inter)action, and involves time and space.

JANUARY31 Second Call for Abstracts for MutaMorphosisA Leonardo 40th Anniversary celebration http://mutamorphosis.org/

MutaMorphosis: Challenging Arts and Sciences 8-10 November 2007, Prague, Czech Republic

The international conference will concentrate on the growing interest -- within the worlds of the arts, sciences and technologies -- in EXTREME AND HOSTILE ENVIRONMENTS. These environments appear as symptomatic indicators of the mutations that are taking place. They are potential vectors that make possible an awareness of the different problems at the origin of the disturbances that threaten the ensemble of the Earth's eco-systems.

We invite practitioners in the arts, sciences, engineering and humanities to submit abstracts that explore the limits and extremes within the following streams of interest:

1. LIFE
How do the arts and sciences deal with new ideas about strategies of life in extreme conditions?

2. SPACE
How do the arts and sciences face radical scales and extreme environments?

3. COGNITION
How do the arts and sciences address evolving ideas about cognition in extreme environments?

500-word abstracts required by 31 January 2007 via email to mutamorphosis@ciant.cz

All submitted abstracts will be peer reviewed by the members of International Advisory Committee including Marc Battier, Nina Czegeldy, Michele Emmer, Machiko Kusahara, Lubica Lacinova, Michael Punt, Sonya Rapoport, Nicolas Reeves and others.

Submissions accepted and presented at the conference will be published in the conference proceedings. The conference is organised by CIANT as part of the ENTER festival in the framework of the Leonardo 40th anniversary celebrations. The festival will feature also the first retrospective exhibition of Frank J. Malina.

Conference Honorary Panel includes: Rudolf Arnheim, Ivan M. Havel, Jasia Reichardt, Itsuo Sakane, Sonia Sheridan
