Pela primeira vez, o Itaú Cultural abre inscrições para a Bienal Emoção Artificial. As inscrições podem ser feitas até 01/02/2010 e o tema deste ano é: Autonomia…
Autonomia: na obra, implica criação ou emergência de regras internas, e não apenas de comportamentos inesperados, como no caso do conceito de emergência. Um objeto artístico com essas características deve apresentar resultados coerentes, mas os meios para atingi-los devem ser adaptáveis e virtualmente imprevisíveis. Portanto, a autonomia cibernética implica emergência de novos processos, bem como adaptabilidade a mudanças de condições ambientes, sejam elas reais ou virtuais. Read more...

Leonardo Guest Editor: Drew Hemment
The second call for papers of the Leonardo special project Lovely Weather: Artists and Scientists on the Cultural Context of Climate Change seeks new cross-disciplinary thinking on sustainability in urban environments, with a focus on creative intervention, social change and non-Western perspectives.
In urban environments we are separated from the consequences of our actions as surely as the tarmac of the road cuts us off from the earth beneath.
