GRAPHITE 2005 DIGITAL ART GALLERY - CALL FOR ART
DEADLINE August 15th, 2005
[Main conference site http://www.cs.otago.ac.nz/graphite/ ]

The Graphite Art Gallery exhibition will take place at the University of
Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand from the 29th November to 3rd December 2005.

Graphite 2005 Digital Art Gallery is looking for digitally based works
that explore the nature of creative practice, especially works that deal
with the dialectic notions of local/global, digital/physical,
internal/external, the body/the machine, or other technologically framed
dialectic pairings that contain a digital, computer, or electronic
component within the process of creation. These topics may be expressed
in the following types of work:

* 2D and 3D fine art
* Animation or sculpture
* Interactive or online works
* Small-scale installations displayable in light environments without
the need for dedicated darken rooms

NOTE: All pieces for Graphite 2005 Digital Art Gallery must be original
work, completed after June 2004.
