Apologies for x-posting--please consider sharing this announcement with 
your colleagues/constituents.

I am pleased to announce the call for works (papers, posters, 
installations, and performance works) for the upcoming Contemplative 
Practices for the 21st Century University conference that will take 
place at Virginia Tech, March 10-12, 2016.

As part of the conference, Virginia Tech Institute for Creativity, Arts, 
and Technology (ICAT) invites proposals for art, installations, and 
technology demonstrations with focus on contemplative practice. While 
proposed art and installations should also leverage technology, within 
the context of this submission we define technology in the broadest 
terms possible. All submissions will be reviewed by an interdisciplinary 
panel consisting of ICAT faculty and will be assessed on their 
feasibility within the context of available conference infrastructure 
and resources. Selected projects will be showcased as part of the 
reception and a concert at the Moss Arts Center. Where appropriate, some 
submissions may be also presented in a paper and/or poster format as 
part of the "Technology" track. Authors of selected submissions will be 
expected to attend the conference. We are particularly interested in 
performance works that leverage ICAT's unique infrastructure, including 
Cube and Perform Studio. To apply, please see the ICAT Submissions Form 
on the website below. The deadline for submissions is December 18, 2015.
