APRIL27 : SKETCHES & POSTERS DEADLINE
Sketches & Posters http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/presenters/sap/
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
