A partnership between Goldsmiths and Birkbeck Colleges and the
University of Sussex

Including a public evening performance/exhibition event on the 16
May curated by BLIP and the Computer Arts Society at the Science
Museum's Dana Centre in Knightsbridge

Call for Participation

This workshop will bring together practitioners and researchers
who are involved in the use of computational systems in the fine
and performing arts, literature, design and animation as well as
the associated fields of aesthetics, cognitive science, art
history and cultural theory.  It especially invites those
involved in the computational analysis and modelling of creative
behaviour to meet and share their experiences and explore the
potential of co-operative future ventures. It is intended that
this call should interest the widest possible constituency.
However a very broad list of (non-exclusive) descriptors might
include:
* the application of computational and generative methodologies
   in the arts and related creative disciplines
* computational approaches to creativity, cognition and
   aesthetics
* the application of artificial intelligence and artificial life
* the application of evolutionary and adaptive systems
* cultural applications of computing and digital electronics in
   general

Categories of Submission
* Position papers, posters, abstracts, etc...
   Places are limited!  Please send in a one-page (maximum) outline
   of why you (and your colleagues) would like to attend and what
   you could contribute and/or how you might benefit.  Include URLs
   to relevant projects/experience where possible
* Artworks, performances, etc...
   Please submit a one-page proposal including technical
   requirements.  Include URLs where possible

Deadline
The deadline for outlines and proposals is 19 March 2006.  They
should be sent to the conference chairs as PDF attachments to an
email with the subject "CMCA Workshop Submission"
