University, and a vast variety of local academic and artistic partners.

ISEA is the largest international academic gatherings on electronic and
emergent arts, world-wide. Since its start in the Netherlands in 1988 it
has been organised in 4 continents and in over 20 different cities. ISEA
brings together scholarly, artistic, and scientific domains in an
interdisciplinary discussion that showcases creative productions
applyingnew technologies in art, interactivity, and electronic and
digital media.

ISEA2015 welcomes submissions for three broad categories:

1 – An exciting art program that will run throughout the duration of the
symposium. We welcome submission of artworks, installations and
performances alike. Please see our call for artworks to find out how you
can be part of it: http://isea2015.org/call-for-proposals/call-for-artworks/

occur on Friday the 14th, and Saturday the 15th of August 2015. See the
