SIGGRAPH 98 ART SHOW Deadline Approaching!!!

CALL FOR ELECTRONIC ART SUBMISSIONS

Touchware
SIGGRAPH 98 Art Show, July 1998

Submission Deadline: January 14, 1998

This exhibit will probe the physical, conceptual, and psychological
issues of touch–the tactility of the image, the responsiveness of an
artwork through the sense of touch, or the ephemeral sensation of touch
and connection through the Internet, VR or telecommuni-cations. This
exhibition will focus on rematerializations of digitized experiences.
Artists are challenged to explore the tactility of materials in the
electronic or printed page, touch-based responsive processes in the
interface, or the extension of physicality to the ephemeral emotion of
being in-touch via the internet. This exhibition will highlight the
contemporary aesthetics of the electronic image: as visual image,
interactive image, animated image, virtual image, Web image. This
exhibition will include 2D prints, drawings, photographs, mixed media
and artists' books, 3D sculpture and kinetics, interactive
installations, ARTSITE Web projects, live telecommunication events, and
performances. A catalog will be published.
