Subject: CFP: The Journal of Art Theory and Practice: Art, Science, and 
Technology

Deadline: Apr 30, 2015

In his 1923 lecture "Art and Technology: A New Unity," Walter Gropius 
addressed his modern vision with the Bauhaus in favor of technological 
invention and possible expansion of our experience. His progressive 
belief in the unity of art and technology still appeals to us, facing 
unprecedented development of technology. Against a backdrop of Gropius's 
unifying vision, we'd like to open up discussions on the various 
formation of art in relation to the advance of modern technology. In the 
era when being technologically correct would matter as Lorne Falk has 
pointed out, a unity of art and technology should be critically 
reconsidered for its validity and viability. An enthusiastic embrace of 
modern technology has contributed to inventing a new aesthetic, thereby 
expanding our senses. Along the triumphal path of inventions though, 
some ethical questions could be posed. Possible discussion includes, but 
not be limited to, historical investigations of the efforts unifying 
disparate areas, interactions between art, science, and technology, a 
reflection on the mixed blessing of the interactions, any viable 
avant-garde vision in the integration, a critical view on the 
abuse/misuse of technology for a new art. The term "art" includes visual 
art, photography, film, video art, architecture, new media art, and 
bio-art. We welcome submissions from art historians, critics, artists, 
curators, philosophers, administrators, professionals, and scholars, 
whose interdisciplinary interests would be drawn to the issue. All 
perspectives and methodologies are welcome.

The Journal of Art Theory and Practice is a peer-reviewed publication. 
Affiliated with the professional society called Korean Society of Art 
Theories, the journal is published twice a year both online and in 
print. In June and December 2015 we plan to publish two volumes with a 
thematic issue: "Art, Science, and Technology," for which we would like 
to encourage submissions.
