Hola a todos,
Envío a la lista información sobre el congreso
internacional que estamos organizando en Salamanca
para el próximo mayo (28-39).
http://www.smartgraphics.org
Se trata de un congreso científico en el área
de los "gráficos inteligentes", y congrega a
profesionales relacionados con la Interacción
Persona-Ordenador, Inteligencia Artificial, Gráficos,
etc.
Este año el congreso está estrechamente relacionado
con el 5º festival Internacional de las Artes de Castilla
y León (http://www.festivalcyl.com/), en cuyo marco se
establecerán mesas redondas, debates abiertos al
público, exposiciones, demostraciones, instalaciones,
etc. que se centrarán en la discusión sobre la relación
simbiótica entre Ciencia,Arte y Tecnología.
Adjunto al final la llamada de trabajos (en inglés), haciendo
un especial énfasis en la llamada a trabajos artísticos.
El congreso, a través de un comité de reconocido prestigio,
seleccionará los mejores trabajos para que sean expuestos
durante el Festival, e invitará al autor del mejor trabajo
durante la duración del congreso, lo que enriquecerá
este encuentro internacional con la comunidad académica
y artística que participará en el evento.
Espero que sea de vuestro interés.
Atentamente,
=================================

9th International Symposium on SMART GRAPHICS
http://www.smartgraphics.org/
May 28-30 2009
Salamanca, Spain
Submission deadline January 23rd, 2009
Graphics become Smart Graphics when their design and implementation are
grounded in an understanding of human abilities, activities, and
motivations
from design experience and the broad spectrum of cognitive and social
sciences.
When knowledge from these diverse fields is combined with new methods,
tools
and techniques in AI, HCI and computer graphics, environments are
created that:
(1) engage the user and are aesthetically satisfying;
(2) participate in human cognition as external or distributed
representations;
(3) are sensitive to the real-time demands of the interaction in the
context of the
available informational and computational resources;
(4) adapt the form of the output according to a wider set of
constraints such as an
individual's perceptual, attentive, and motor abilities and the
nature of the
presentation media and available interaction devices.
The International Symposium on Smart Graphics aims at gathering people
from
the fields of Cognitive Science, Computer Graphics, Artificial
Intelligence and
Graphics Design to share experiences and experiments in this new and
emerging
area of study.
*** Come and Join the Smart Graphics Experience ***
Smart Graphics 2009 welcomes submissions from researchers and
practitioners,
as well as artists and graphic designers interested in an
interdisciplinary approach
to the design of smart interactive visual, auditory, and haptic
displays.
Submission categories are divided into:
* Full research papers: these will encompass comprehensive
descriptions of
original work within the scope of the symposium (limited to 12
pages in Springer
LNCS format).
* Posters: tentative or preliminary results of research or design work
with emphasis
on the interdisciplinary evaluation of the ideas (limited to 4
pages in Springer
LNCS format). Poster papers will be included in the proceedings.
* System demonstrations: short descriptions of research or design work
that the
authors intend to show and discuss in a demo session at the
symposium (limited
to 2 pages in Springer LNCS format). System demonstration papers
will be included
in the proceedings.
* Arts track: computer animations, interactive art, digital music,
hybrid art, etc.
A two-three page proposal outlining the concept and technique of
the artwork. An
international jury of renowned scientists and artists will select
the submissions that
best represent the idea of <<Smart Graphics Arts>>. Selected works
will be exhibited
during the Smart Graphics symposium, within the framework of the
5th International
Arts Festival of Castilla y León. A report of the art track
including all the selected
works will be included in the proceedings. The best piece will be
awarded and its
author will be invited to the sysmposium.
Smartgraphics specially encourages young researchers to submit their
ideas and
results. As in previous conferences, proceedings will be published in
the Springer
Lecture Note in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to):
* information visualization
* visual analytics
* graphical abstraction
* multimodal information presentation
* non-desktop interfaces
* user interaction
* sketch-based interfaces
* interaction science
* scene perception
* cognitive sciences
* user studies
* computer graphics
* artificial intelligence
* virtual and mixed reality
* graphics design
* technological art
This year, we propose a specific emphasis on visual analytics as well
as all kinds of
transversal research that harnesses the power of humans and
technological artefacts
in order to convey, understand and deal with complex scientific and
social processes.
Smart Graphics, beyond a conventional conference, will be intertwined
with the 5th
International Arts Festival of Castilla y León (http://www.festivalcyl.com/
), and we invite
artists, technologists and scholars from all disciplines to convene in
Salamanca,
May 28-30, 2009. Both during the Smart Graphics Symposium and during the
Festival (May 29-June 15) workshops, system demonstrations,
exhibitions,
performances, panels and open discussions related to how information
technology
is provided to the society and how art is evolving and taking
advantage of technological
artefacts in its quest of new artistic forms, will become part of the
unique streets and
buildings of UNESCO?s World Heritage city of Salamanca.
