CFP 4th Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment, 2007
Date: Friday, February 23 @ 02:33:47 CET
Topic: Opportunities
The Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment, in its fourth year, is a cross-disciplinary conference that brings together researchers from artificial intelligence, cognitive science, media studies, drama, HCI, psychology, interactive media, cultural studies, graphics, audio, as well as researchers from other disciplines working on new game specific technologies or providing critical analysis of games and interactive environments.
In an epoch marked by convergence, cross-platform media and the rise of social software/ networks, how are the digital industries – most especially gaming – being transformed? What types of new genres and modes of interactivity are evolving? And how are these social technologies informed by cultural context? The 2007 Interactive Entertainment conference considers the difference between convergence as rhetoric and practice, imaginary and reality.
The conference will accept innovative submission types that present new scientific ideas, improvements to existing techniques or provide new ways of examining, designing and using computer games. Accepted papers will be blind-peer refereed.
