Interactive Experiences - deadline 23rd June 2008
Chair: Jenn Sheridan, Bigdog Interactive, Nick Bryan-Kinns, Queen Mary University
Reflecting our European Capital of Culture theme this year Interactive Experiences coincides with (re)Actor3: The Third International Conference on Digital Live Art and, for the first time in British HCI history, selected proposals will be exhibited in an open public gallery and performed at the opening evening reception. This stream of the British HCI/ (re)Actor conferences is the forum for the demonstration of real systems, advanced prototypes, pre-recorded or dynamic videos, interactive installations, HCI related live performance and so on. This includes a wide variety of dynamic and "touchable" experiences for which a standard paper presentation would not fully convey the appeal or novelty of the work. An Interactive Experience could involve a demonstration of a new device or novel application of existing technologies, an engaging experience which highlights some unique interactive phenomenon, or even a video or a live performance. Proposals may also be submitted for interactive surveys or polls that will take advantage of the assembly of expert practitioners present at the conference. In addition, the theme emerging out of (re)Actor3 this year is "HiTech LowFi". As such, we are seeking those engaged in DIY Culture and Upcycling with a strong emphasis on sustainable technologies, reclamation and a greener future. The (re)Actor crew, led by this year's Chair artist, VJ and film maker Tom Lloyd, will ensure a sensory feast of interaction delights. (re)Actor3 provides artist commissions, travel bursaries and prizes for selected proposals. For information on (re)Actor3 artist commissions and travel bursaries visit www.DigitalLiveArt.com .
