EAI ArtsIT 2022 – 11th EAI International Conference: ArtsIT, Interactivity & Game Creation

November 21-22, 2022 | Faro, Portugal

Submission deadline: 1 August 2022

SCOPE

ArtsIT  takes  place  from  December  6th  to  7th,  as  a  hybrid  event  at  the  University  of Algarve,  Faro,  Algarve,  Portugal,  and  in Cyberspace.  In  this  edition  the  CIAC  –  Centro de Investigação em Artes e Comunicação, will host the event. The CIAC is a research unit assessed by the Foundation for Science and Technology. Since its foundation, the CIAC has promoted and actively collaborated  in  several  partnerships  in  the  artistic  and  cultural  activities  of  the  Algarve,  where  it  is  based,  through  specific collaboration agreements with Municipal Councils, Cultural Associations and with the Algarve Regional Directorate for Culture. It  is  currently  an  important  stakeholder  in  the  region.  The  research  produced  at  the  CIAC  is  often  disseminated  by  the surrounding community through the multiple extension activities promoted, as well as discussed in international networks. The  ArtsIT  conference  is  considered  a  perfect  partner  to  CIAC,  as  it  offers  a  bringing  together  an  even  wider  array  of  cross-/inter-/trans-disciplinary researchers, practitioners, artists, and academia to present and discuss the symbiosis between art (in its  widest  definition)  and  information  technology  applied  in  a  variety  of  distinct  fields.  Since  2009  ArtsIT  has  become acknowledged as a leading scientific forum for the dissemination of cutting-edge research results in the intersection between art, science, culture, performing arts, media, and technology.

EAI ArtsIT 2022 will be held as an on-site conference with an option to present remotely.

We are pleased to invite you to submit your paper to EAI ArtsIT 2022. Submissions should be in English, following the Springer formatting guidelines (see Submission).

CALL FOR PAPERS FOR SPECIAL TRACK ON DIALOGUES BETWEEN GEOMETRY, COMPUTER GRAPHICS AND THE VISUAL ARTS

Computers present us with new ways to both capture and represent visual information. Through their sheer power, they have revolutionized a longstanding dialogue between geometry, the scientific disciplines of visual representation, and the visual arts.

As we rush forward with technical innovations, it is important to realize the nature of this dialogue, how it has long preceded computers, what aspects of it have been changed by computers, and what aspects have remained the same, or follow in a direct line from older technologies. And much does so: Mixed Reality is the heir of Brunneleschi’s first demo of perspective, an optical illusion machine made with the renaissance hi-tech of painted panel, mirror, and peephole. Projection mapping explores the same anamorphic geometry of Niceron’s Curious Perspectives and Pozzo’s illusionistic church ceilings. 3D sculpting of the human figure faces the same conceptual problems as Durer did in his geometrical treatment of anatomical measurements – the geometric problem endures whether we draw with charcoal or digital pen, whether we sculpt with triangular meshes, NURBS, or chisel and scope. But truly new problems also arise: the topology requirements of a 3D model meant for animation are something quite new. To see what is new and what is constant, helps us focus on the fundamentals, and opens new avenues for both technical and artistic creation.
In this track we focus on work on which this dialogue between computers, art and geometry is an important factor, whether in architecture, animation, games, engineering or education. We are especially interested in the way in which geometrical consideration are used to stimulate new kinds of art or new ways of displaying and exploring data; in the ways in which geometrical consideration should inform the teaching of new subjects and the development of new technologies; or on how the needs of digital artistic expression could motivate new geometrical concepts and problems.

We wait for your contributions to a continuing dialogue on which much remains to be said.
