http://www.crg.cs.nott.ac.uk/~azc/call.html -------------------------------------------------- Submission Deadline 1st June 2010. -------------------------------------------------- Mixed Reality performances have highlighted our ability to: exist, understand and concurrently engage with both virtual and real worlds in a performative way. The development of the technologies under-pinning such Mixed Reality systems have afforded performers, directors and developers the chance to create experiences that can both spatially and temporally explore the boundaries of performance and understand where and why performance occurs in everyday life. These experiences can exist in a multitude of realities, that not only blur the boundary between the real and the virtual, but also re-define the distinction between the roles of audience and performer, creating new audience/performer-based paradigms. Although new technologies have furthered these possibilities, there are low-tech approaches that have explored the orchestration and directions of performance and used these mechanisms to convey experience, imbue presence and a sense of place. Contributions may consider any of the following topics (although these are not prescriptive): - Exploring temporality and spatiality - Understanding new audience/performer-based paradigms - Directing and orchestrating mixed reality experiences - Mixing realities - Presence and place - Content creation and development for mixed reality experiences - Case studies - Archival representation and re-play Submissions should be emailed to: [email protected] http://www.crg.cs.nott.ac.uk/~azc/call.html -- Olga P Massanet -------------------------- www.ungravitational.net virtualfirefly.wordpress.com www.vimeo.com/ungravitational _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
