CALL FOR MUSIC PERFORMANCE SUBMISSIONS
CHI Conference
10-15 April 2010
Atlanta, GA, USA
Submission deadline: 9 October 2009
The CHI conference is an annual conference on human-computer
interaction. It is sponsored by the Association for Computing
Machinery (ACM) and regularly attracts over 2000 attendees. To broaden
the scope of work presented at the conference, we have established a
new venue, The CHI Media Showcase, and we are soliciting submissions
by artists, designers, musicians, and performers to be included in
this year's program.
The CHI Media Showcase is a chance to present experimental and
prototype projects that involve computational media and interaction in
a wide variety of forms including video, interactive systems and
artifacts, installations, performances, and participatory events.
CHI encourages the submission of compelling musical performances which
showcase new interfaces for musical expression and/or new techniques
for interfacing traditional musicians with computers.
Submitted works scored for 1-5 musicians (violin, cello, flute,
clarinet or saxophone, and percussion) will be considered for
performance at CHI by Sonic Generator
(http://www.sonicgenerator.gatech.edu). That ensemble, which is in
residence at Georgia Tech, includes some of the best chamber musicians
in Atlanta and several members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.
Submitted works for other performing forces are also welcome, but
musicians must perform such works themselves or provide their own
performers.
Submission to the program only requires a video - an academic paper is
*not* required to submit. The key purpose of the video is to
communicate to the reviewers your proposal for the CHI Media Showcase.
The content of the video will vary depending on how you want to
participate in the showcase. For example, if you want to give a music
or theatre performance, the video should contain an excerpt of what
you will perform. If you want to give a demo of an interactive system
or artifact, the video should show a working version of the system. If
you want to screen a video in the showcase, your submission video
should be an excerpt of the final video. More information about the
submission categories are provided at the link below. The only limits
of content for the video trailer are your imagination! Just be sure
that your video communicates to reviewers your proposal for the CHI
Media Showcase.
CHI Media Showcase is a juried track for CHI 2010. While not
considered archival, content from most juried venues will be
represented in the ACM Digital Library through Extended Abstracts. In
addition, select video trailers will be archived online. You may
submit work that has already been exhibited, performed or published
elsewhere, as long as you make this clear in the submission.
Submissions are due 9 October 2009. The online submission system will
open soon.

me with any questions.
