[PD-ot] Call for Works: Artificial Intelligence and Analogous Interactions at ICMC 2010

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

>
> CALL FOR WORKS:  ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND ANALOGOUS INTERACTIONS  
> AT ICMC 2010
> http://ICMC2010.org/open-call.html#analogous
>
> Complexity theory is not new to art or to our culture.  It migrated
> from computer science and biology to economics and art and, with the
> advent of the world wide web, it invaded our collective subconscious.
> Analogous seeks to support complexity-driven art and artists playing
> under this conceptual umbrella of "Interaction Art".
>
> Analogous invites proposals for presentation at Analogous Interactions
> events for the International Computer Music Conference, taking place
> in New York City in June 2010.  Works should explore the intersection
> of computer music and emergent phenomena -- including, but not limited
> to, generative sound- and video-works, performative ecologies and
> installations, live-coding and musical improvisation, reality-based
> games and social experiments, biomedical hacking and new technology,
> artificial intelligence and chaordic systems.  Works should be
> "nondeterministic", having an unpredictable and/or live element, and
> should be appropriate for a performance, an installation, or a social
> event.  (Both works-in-progress and finished works will be
> considered.)
>
