Dear all,<br>
<br>
please consider submitting your paper or presentation for the <b>Symposium
on Music, Arts and Unconventional Computing </b>at the <b>AISB
Convention 2015</b> organised by the <i>Society for the Study of
Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviour.</i> The 2015
Convention will be held at the University of Kent, Canterbury, UK,
from 20-22nd April 2015.<br>
<br>
<b>Deadline paper submission: 15th February, 2015</b><br>
<br>
Art and life are driven by process. Science and computation are
driven by results. Research into unconventional, or nature-inspired
computing aims to uncover novel principles of efficient information
processing and computation in physical, chemical and biological
systems, to develop novel non-standard algorithms and computing
architectures, and also to implement conventional algorithms in
non-silicon, or wet substrates. Where is the boundary between
animate and artificial, between real and imaginary in artistic
works? How does art contribute to computation? Where is computation
in life and arts? The workshop brings together topics of artificial
intelligence, generative and audiovisual media, tangibility and
interactivity, and bio-inspired algorithms. We invite artists,
designers, scientists and engineers who create art works using
chemical, physical and living computing substrates and artists
coming from cutting-edge fields of research and art production that
focuses on creating aesthetic experiences, interactive or
collaborative aspects for visitors. We aim to bring together
Renaissance epoch presenters: the scientists who are artists, and
the artists who are inspired by computational sciences.<br>
