Submissions have just now opened for ISEA2012 Albuquerque: Machine Wilderness,
Re-envisioning Art,
Technology and Nature at http://www.isea2012.org/ - deadline October 1st
ISEA2012 Albuquerque: Machine Wilderness is a symposium and series of
events exploring the discourse of global proportions on the subject of
art, technology and nature.
Proposals may include:
* Artworks/Performances
* Panels
* Workshops
* Papers
* Residencies/Site Projects
The ISEA2012 symposium will consist of a conference September 19 - 24, 2012
based in Albuquerque with outreach days along the state's "Cultural Corridor"
in Santa Fe and Taos, and an expansive, regional collaboration throughout the
fall of 2012, including art exhibitions, public events, performances and
educational activities. This project will bring together a wealth of leading
creative minds from around the globe, and engage the local community through
in-depth partnerships.
Machine Wilderness references the New Mexico region as an area of rapid growth
and technology alongside wide expanses of open land, and aims to present
artists' and technologists' ideas for a more humane interaction between
technology and wilderness in which "machines" can take many forms to support
life on Earth. Machine Wilderness focuses on creative solutions for how
technology and the natural world can sustainably co-exist.
The program will include: a bilingual focus, an indigenous thread, and a focus
on land and skyscape. Because of our vast resource of land in New Mexico,
proposals from artists are being sought that will take ISEA participants out
into the landscape. The Albuquerque Balloon Museum offers a unique opportunity
for artworks to extend into the sky as well.
The lead organizations hosting ISEA2012 are 516 ARTS, The University of New
Mexico and The Albuquerque Museum of Art & History. There are a total over 50
partnering organizations to date representing museums, colleges, nonprofit arts
organizations, environmental organizations and the scientific and technological
communities.
Spread the word!
