[Kon.[Text]] Symposium
Zurich, Switzerland, Thursday July 13th to Sunday July 16th, 2006

Digital Art Weeks - ETH Zurich - http://www.digitalartweeks.ethz.ch

The Digital Art Weeks PROGRAM (DAW06) is concerned with the application

of digital technology in the arts. Consisting of symposium, workshops
and performances, the program offers insight into current research and

innovations in art and technology as well as illustrating resulting
synergies in a series of performances during the Digital Art Weeks
Festival each year, making artists aware of impulses in technology and

scientists aware of the possibilities of the application of technology

in the arts.

[Kon.[Text]], this year's Digital Art Weeks SYMPOSIUM concerns the use

of the Performative Surround in the arts and the technology that drives

it. The Performative Surround pertains to the immersive quality and
quantity of the setting of a performative artwork that uses electronic

media enhancement. In a series of lectures, demonstrations, panels and

performances, artists and researcher will examine the use of electronic

media in articulating the performer's presence through the
possibilities of the multi-sensuality of electronic media.

The organizers of the Digital Art Weeks ETH Zurich are seeking
presentations, demonstrations and performances on all themes specific
to performance using electronic media that explore a concept of the
Performative Surround. Submissions of both theoretical and empirical
studies are invited from the perspectives of the performing arts and
computer science and as well as other topics relevant areas.

Suggested submission topics for papers, demonstrations and performance

include, but are not limited to the following themes:

Sound-Art
2. Laptop Music (including Live-Coding!) & Film Accompaniment
(Live-Cinema & Re-Scoring)
3. Mobile Art & Music Works that explore Performer Networking and
Audience Participation
4. Net-poetry and literature & computer mediated communication (i.e.,
