ART Explorations TEI 2012
Submission Guidelines
The Art Explorations track at TEI 2012 invites interactive artworks that
explore the intersections between rich materiality, sensory interaction and
digital and computational expression. The work should be tangibly evocative,
thought provoking and content rich. Artworks can employ interactivity through
digital installations, performativity, technology-enriched fashion, objects and
textiles, and interactive experience.
Art Explorations welcomes work from a wide range of practitioners in areas such
as interaction design, research or art and performance, including submissions
from students and independent practitioners.
Submissions should meet the following criteria:
1. Relevant: The work must have a tangible aspect, in the form of an
installation, object or art piece.
2. Technological: It must involve computational technology in some aspect of
its form or function.
3. Aesthetic : It must have an aesthetic element in form of craftsmanship and
communicate its message effectively through form, function and emotion.
4. Creative : It must be inventive, in its concept, technical architectural or
physical embodied form.
Submissions will be selected according to the following criteria:
1. Concept: Conceptual quality of the work. Is the work new, appropriate,
compelling, exciting? Does it provoke or intensify critical reflection? Does
the work invent new technical or physical approaches to TEI?
2. Execution (craft): Is the work well realized? Is it built and executed to a
high standard? Will it be suitable to exhibit at the TEI 2012 conference?
3. Aesthetics: Aesthetic quality of the work. Is the material aesthetically
stunning and evocative? Does the work delight the senses? Does it intensify,
enchant, amuse or draw on the subtle, visceral qualities of experience?
4. Provocative : Does the work challenge the status quo of art and design
theory and practice.
Submissions will be selected from a panel of expert jurors.
Kinds of Art Explorations can include but are not limited to:
• Art installations involving tactile, sonic, kinetic and visually rich
exposition
• Inventions in robotics, sensing, toys, games and entertainment
• Materially or textile enriched interactivity that illustrates performativity
• Architectural performances, prototypes and installations
Submission Instructions
Submissions are NOT required to be anonymous. The two elements to the
submissions are:
• A link to a video (youtube or vimeo) showing the look and feel of the work
and highlighting its interactive elements. The video must be no more than 5
minutes in length. If submitting your work is not possible in this format,
please contact the chairs for alternative video submission instructions.
• A 2-page written description explaining the concept, references and rationale
behind the project in ACM SIGCHI abstract landscape format ( word format /
latex format ). This document must not exceed 10 MB in size.
At the conference, selected Art Explorations will be installed during the demo
session. It will be possible to exhibit a poster next to the installation or
object.
The written description of accepted submissions will be made available on the
ACM digital library . There will be no opportunity to modify submitted material
after acceptance. TEI 2012 will also post the videos from accepted submissions
on www.youtube.com and link directly to this content from the TEI 2012 site.
Copyright will remain with authors.
