Non-members are welcome to attend so please pass this notice on to anyone who may be interested. Like most CAS meetings there is no charge for admission. The CAS is pleased to announce it's first meeting of the New Year which will be given by the CAS founder and editor of PAGE: Alan Sutcliffe Recent Graphics and Animations using some Maths Tuesday, 19 February 2008 (note 3rd Tuesday) 6:60 for 7:00; System Simulation Ltd Bedford Chambers, The Piazza Covent Garden London WC2E 8HA, England http://www.ssl.co.uk/content/map.html A simple method to generate irregular but smooth curves will be described, together with shading to give 3-d forms. The method uses the repeated addition of differences of differences of differences in one co-ordinate for unit change in the other co-ordinate. Drawing in the XOR mode gives unexpected benefits in this context. The anatomy of the XOR operator applied to grey-scales and colours will be illustrated. This is an extended version of the talk given at the Bridges Conference at Donostia in July 2007, updated with some more recent animations based on these and other mathematical methods. In 1967 Alan Sutcliffe wrote a program, to compose electronic music, which ran on an ICL 1900 computer. The music was realised, from a paper tape of the score, in the electronic music studio of Peter Zinovieff. When this won second prize in the International Computer Music Competition at IFIP 68 in Edinburgh he was prompted to propose the formation of a Computer Arts Society that he chaired until 1979. During 2007 he has exhibited in Bremen, Graz, Donostia and Karlsruhe. An early graphic, thought lost, turned up in the CAS Collection during its hand-over to the Victoria & Albert Museum.

From: Matthias Krüger <matthias.krueger@kunstgeschichte.uni-hamburg.de> Date: 08 Feb 2008 Subject: CFP: Warburgkolleg Der Künstler in der Fremde Wanderschaft - Migration - Exil Internationales Warburg-Kolleg 2008/9 The International Warburg Seminar 2008/9 (July 14-18 2008 and February 9-13 2009) will deal with the impact that a voluntary or forced stay in a foreign country has on the production and the reception of works of art. Possible topics might include artistic formation during the years of travel, academies as centres of international exchange, political or religious exiles, the artist as tourist, exoticism, migration as a stigma or as an artistic strategy, nationalistic exclusion or inclusion of certain artistic tendencies, art as a transnational and universal language. Individual case studies shedding light on the general topic discussed in the seminar would be desirable. PhD candidates or younger PhDs of art history may apply for this international course by submitting a short abstract of the project they want to present during the Warburg Seminar 2008/9. A publication of the contributions is intended. Participants are expected to present their topics during the first session in July. Based on discussions during the first part of the seminar, participants are expected to have refined and expanded their projects by winter 2009. Travel expenses and accommodation will be covered by the Warburg Foundation, Hamburg. Foreign applications are most welcome. The seminar will be held in German and English. Applications have to include a draft of the project (no longer than two pages), a curriculum vitae, a list of publications and a letter of recommendation by a university teacher. Completed dossiers should be submitted by March 31, 2008, to Prof. Dr. Uwe Fleckner, Kunstgeschichtliches Seminar, Universität Hamburg, Edmund-Siemers-Allee 1, D-20146 Hamburg.

During this project, artists and scientists who are active in creating interactive media art or pursuing innovative interdisciplinary research will have the opportunity to: - create interactive installation artworks - collaborate with other artists and scientists from different countries - get technical support and tuition from experts on using innovative technologies for creating interactive art - meet, discuss and collaborate with curators and museum organizers - exhibit their work in at least two different European countries - document their work in a special issue of Leonardo Electronic Almanac and the exhibition catalogue - participate in an international network of artists, researchers, academics and theorists Eligibility / requirements: Artists from all disciplines are encouraged to apply to e-MobiLArt: interactive installation artists, video artists, visual artists, net artists, as well as musicians, choreographers, performance artists and others who wish to experiment with the use of the interactive technologies.
