PARTICIPATORY DESIGN CONFERENCE 2006 Art Track - CALL FOR ARTWORKS
http://www.participart.org/
ParticipART will be an exhibition on participative and electronic art at the MART (Museum of Modern Art of Trento and Rovereto, Italy) from the 2nd to the 4th of August 2006.
ParticipART invites artists, musicians, game designers and performers to submit proposals of art works to be part of a public exhibition, performances, and discussions.
PartecipART is the Art Track of The Participatory Design Conference (PDC) 2006, “Expanding Boundaries in Design”, to be held July 31-August 5, 2006 in Trento, Italy.
PDC focuses on the design and development of computing and information technologies in diverse social contexts, with the active collaboration of people who use or are affected by these systems. Over the years, our design discussions have been enlivened and enriched by the efforts of musicians, architects, computer graphic designers and artists working across a wide range of disciplines. Artists presenting their work at PDC ‘06 will enjoy a rare opportunity to reach a technically expert and socially engaged community of practitioners.
TOPICS
ParticipART is the Art Track of the Participatory Design Conference (PDC). The PD community is interested in taking inspiration from and collaborating with artists and designers engaged in creative practices that support new roles for visitors/viewers as active spect-actors and co-authors.
INVITED ARTISTS AND WORKS

REVIEWING PROCESS

EXHIBITION AND DISCUSSION
Selected projects will be displayed at MART as part of a special event with the opportunity for discussion and feedback from conference participants.

Dear INSCAPERS,
Please find below urls for two calls for submissions for international electronic arts events with respective deadlines of 15th October (ISEA) and 30th September (VIDA).
The ISEA Transvergence call (San Jose, August 2006) englobes a number of general concepts related to interdisciplinary arts and new media:
http://isea2006.sjsu.edu/transvergence/index.html
The VIDA - Art and Artificial Life - Competition organised by the Fundacion Telefonica in Madrid (October 2005), has scope for work on avatars and intelligent agents which many of you are involved in:
http://www.fundacion.telefonica.com/at/vida/
They’re both high profile events, on the edgier “art” side rather than on the commercial production side, and tend to draw very diverse materials.
The San Jose ISEA edition will be positioning itself as a Pacific Rim/ Silicon Valley event with an international focus, and mobilise West Coast Americans, along with the usual bunch from Japan/ Singapore, Australasia, and of course Europe.
VIDA has a very strong Latin American thread alongside the usual North American/ Japanese/ European stake-holders, and is developing explicit funded links with South American artists.
Best wishes to all, and advance thanks for forwarding this information to any potentially interested people/ organisations
