Call For Papers - CFP

evomusart 2011 is the ninth European event on Evolutionary Music and Art. Following the success of previous events and the growth of interest in the field, the main goal of evomusart 2011 is to bring together researchers who are using biologically inspired techniques for artistic tasks, providing the opportunity to promote, present and discuss ongoing work in this area.

The event will be held from 27-29 April 2011 ? Torino, Italy as part of the evo* event.

Accepted papers will be presented orally at the event and included in the evoapplications proceedings, published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

Areas of Interest and Contributions

The papers should concern the use of bio-inspired techniques ? e.g. Evolutionary Computation, Artificial Life, Artificial Neural Networks, Swarm Intelligence, etc. ? in the scope of the generation, analysis and interpretation of art, music, design, architecture and other artistic fields. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Generation

Biologically Inspired Design and Art-Making Systems that create drawings, images, animations, sculptures, poetry, text, objects, designs, webpages, buildings, etc.

Biologically Inspired Sound-Generators and Music-Systems that create music, aggregate sound, or simulate instruments, voices, effects, etc

Robotic Based Evolutionary Art and Music

Other related generative techniques

Theory

Computational Aesthetics, Emotional Response, Surprise, Novelty

Representation techniques

Comparative analysis and classification

Validation methodologies

New biologically inspired computation models in art, music and design

Computer Aided Creativity

New ways of integrating users into evolutionary computation art and music frameworks

Analysis and evaluation of: the artistic potential of biologically inspired art and music; the artistic processes inherent to these approaches; the resulting artifacts

Collaborative distributed artificial art environments

Automation

Techniques for automated fitness assignment

Systems that exploit biologically inspired computation to analyze artistic objects and artifacts

Publication Details

Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of evo*, published in a volume of the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science, which will be available at the Conference.

Submission Details

Submissions must be original and not published elsewhere. The submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. The authors of accepted papers will have to improve their paper on the basis of the reviewers’ comments and will be asked to send a camera ready version of their manuscripts. At least one author of each accepted work has to register for the conference and attend the conference and present the work.

The reviewing process will be double-blind, please omit information about the authors in the submitted paper. Submit your manuscript in Springer LNCS format.
