Oggetto: Open Call for Papers and Artworks - Renewable Futures Conference 2017 / Economia - Deadline 30th Sept.

The call for papers and artworks for the Renewable Futures Conference and Economia festival is now open.

Renewable Futures Conference 2017<http://rixc.org/en/conference/> (20-22 January 2017) will take place in Eindhoven (NL), aiming to push the boundaries of our thinking about economy. The conference will be a part of Economia<http://thinkeconomia.com/> Festival<http://thinkeconomia.com/> organized by Baltan Laboratories<http://baltanlaboratories.org> in the Natlab, former physics lab of Philips. Economia is a three day festival in which we collectively explore new ideas and thinking about our economy.

In the search of new economic insights and alternatives to the current model, why not start by treating economics like any other technology? Playing with it, hacking it, using input from other disciplines, unleashing sciencefiction on it, approach it in an artistic manner. The aim of the festival and conference is to approach economics in new ways and look at our economic system and society with the detached view of the visitor, researcher, gamer, alien and artist. We want to reclaim economy as a social/cultural structure that we created, ridding us of the idea of economics as an inevitable law of nature.

We welcome academic researchers, designers, artists, scientists, students, creative and social entrepreneurs, visionaries and other broad thinkers to apply proposals for papers, presentations and/or artworks. Women are especially encouraged to apply. Your proposal includes a focus on at least one of the following five topics: economy as evolution, game, action, market and magic.

Read the full details on the five topics, format of papers and artworks<http://thinkeconomia.com/pdf/openCallEconomia.pdf> (pdf in the attachment)
The deadline for submitting your proposal is September 30th, 2016.

Conference International Scientific Board:  Katja Kwastek, (Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art History, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam), Armin Medosch (Professor of theory of art and media, Singidunum University, Belgrade), Gediminas Urbonas (Associate Professor and Director at MIT program in art, culture and technology, MIT Boston), Misko Suvakovic (Professor of Aesthetics and Theory of Art, Belgrade University), Jussi Parikka (Professor in Technological Culture & Aesthetics, University of Southampton), Dieter Daniels (Professor of Art History and Media Theory, Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig) , Douglas Kahn (Professor of Media and Innovation, University of New South Wales, Sydney), Lev Manovich (Professor of Computer Science, City University of New York), Laura Beloff (Associate Professor and Head of Section, IT University Copenhagen).

We invite you to take part in it or share it with potentially interested people. Hope to see you at the conference/festival in January!

Best Regards,
