CALL FOR EXHIBITION ENTRIES AND PAPERS

ACM Multimedia 2007 is the premier annual multimedia conference, 
covering all aspects of multimedia computing. The ACM MM Interactive Art 
Program seeks to bring together the arts and multimedia communities to 
create the stage to explore, discuss, and push the limits for the 
advancement of both multimedia technology through the arts, and the arts 
through multimedia technology.

This fourth version of the Interactive Art Program will consist of a 
conference track and an art exhibition. We invite artists working with 
digital media and researchers in technical areas to submit their 
original contributions to the following tracks:
¥ Conference track: we solicit papers describing interactive multimedia 
artworks, tools, applications, and technical approaches for creative 
uses of multimedia content and technology as well as technical 
approaches for the management of art-related media collections. Emphasis 
will be given to novel works that use a rich variety of media and those 
that are interactive, particularly works that exploit non-conventional 
human-computer interfaces or sensors in new and emerging areas. We 
strongly encourage papers with a strong technical content written by 
artists. Papers may be long (10 pages) or short (2 to 4 pages). Long 
papers are presented in front of an audience and short papers are 
presented in poster format. New Deadline for full papers to the Arts 
Program Conference Track May 22, 2007
Deadline for short papers to the Arts Program Conference Track June 1, 2007

¥ Multimedia art exhibition: "I / You / Other". We seek artworks that 
use multimedia to explore issues of self-exploration, self-presentation 
towards another, the self in a group or the group as a self. We 
particularly seek interactive multimedia works that by combining 
multiple media, technologies, and novel technical ideas, realize strong 
artistic concepts that give a new perspective on the topic of the 
exhibition.

New Deadline for submission to the Art Exhibition: May 22, 2007
