CONFERENCE |

The
International Conference of the Festival Ciber@RT Bilbao
2004 is a biannual event and is a space for debate and
reflection.
Under the name Challenges
for a Ubiquitous Identity it will focus on
the challenges posed by cyberculture and the new artistic
practices that use digital technologies and emerging technologies
for their development. These technologies and the discussions,
which they generate, have a wide-reaching social repercussion.

CONFERENCE FORMAT |
| |
The Conference
will last 4 days, beginning on Monday
26th April until Thursday 29th April (both included).
It will be divided into 8 sessions. The
first 3 days will be devoted to the 6 topics
proposed by Ciber@RT Bilbao
(6 sessions, 2 per day). Each session will open with a
master lecture and will be completed by a series of communications
to be determined and which an international scientific
committee will select from the submitted papers. The fourth
day will be devoted entirely to Planetary
Collegium, a group of researchers and artists
(a total of 19) directed by Roy Ascott. .
- In addition, the main auditorium of the Conference will
have two adjacent rooms: Room for Artistic
Projects: here, artistic projects may be submitted
which use new technologies for their development. The
selected projects will be shown to the public for a given
time. From the submitted projects a jury will award a
prize to the chosen project. The prize will consist of
financing the project and its future exhibition. The prize
will be awarded by the Foundation Bilbao Arte and will
be displayed in their headquarters. Room
for Emerging Technologies: here, practical applications
of interaction technologies (software and hardware development)
may be submitted. The projects will be chosen by virtue
of their contribution to the science and art community
of innovative tools and applications, their social contribution
of co-operative software and of new programming languages.
The selected projects will be shown to the public for
a given time. From the submitted projects a jury will
choose a project that will be awarded an honorary prize
in recognition of its merits. |
