CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Digital Art Weeks Festival 2007 (DAW07)
July 9 - July 14, 2007
ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland

The Digital Art Weeks is concerned with the application of digital  
technology in the arts. It consists of a symposium, workshops, and  
performances. The program offers insight into current research and  
innovations in art and technology. Artists and researchers will  
examine the use of electronic media in articulating the performer's  
presence through the possibilities of the multi-sensuality of  
electronic media. The possibility of blurring the divide between  
public and performer to bond them through the powers of dissemination  
and inclusion inherent within the technology used will also be  
considered. The organizers of the Digital Art Weeks at ETH Zurich  
seek papers, posters, and performances on themes specific to  
performance using electronic media. We seek proposals that explore a  
concept of the Performative Surround in terms of how computer- 
mediated communication and dialog takes place between performers and  
viewers and how it tends to aid in dissolving the divide between  
performer and viewer.
