Call for papers: International Conference on "Visibility and Transcendence in Religion, Art and Ethics"
The overall aim of the project is to reconsider the relations between visibility and transcendence and the role of images and visualization. The focus will be on contributions from the theological tradition in Europe between the 16th and 21st century. The project proposes a new approach to studies in Reformation history and adjacent fields of Protestant theology.
The conference focuses on the following themes:
1) Language as a mode of revealing and hiding.
2) Human existence between visibility and invisibility.
3) The manifestation of a 'beyond' in the arts.
4) Visible community and invisible transcendence.
Papers do not need to focus specifically on these themes, but may also relate differently to the overall theme.
Please send an e-mail and a paper-proposal of no more than 250 words to av[@]teol.ku.dk

Open Call For Submissions: Infecting The City Public Arts Festival
The Infecting The City Festival offers a unique opportunity to bring art, music, dance and performance out of theatres and galleries and into the streets and public spaces of Cape Town’s Central Business District (CBD). Its aspirations are to challenge audiences, breach boundaries, shift perspectives and help make sense of the public spaces we occupy. The Festival’s aim is to develop a public art intervention that resonates and challenges people to connect with each other and the City, through art.
This is a call for visual and performing artists to submit works that are either completely new or have been previously staged. The work can be a full ensemble piece, an intervention, a live performance, a visual art piece, an installation, a video, a happening, working with technology, via social media, totally interactive or some other form newly imagined. All works should translate to or work within a public environment, and should actively engage intentional and incidental audiences.
Founded in 2005, the Africa Centre provides a platform for exploring contemporary Pan-African arts and cultural practice as a catalyst for social change. The Africa Centre’s has been structured to: formulate innovative models for presenting, debating and encouraging cultural production and the pursuit of knowledge; provide broad access to the creative work and ideas of historical and contemporary African thought leaders; and re-examine the role, identity, transience and creation of cultural expression.

The Infecting The City Festival offers a unique opportunity to bring art, music, dance and performance out of theatres and galleries and into the streets and public spaces of Cape Town’s Central Business District (CBD). Its aspirations are to challenge audiences, breach boundaries, shift perspectives and help make sense of the public spaces we occupy. The Festival’s aim is to develop a public art intervention that resonates and challenges people to connect with each other and the City, through art.
This is a call for visual and performing artists to submit works that are either completely new or have been previously staged. The work can be a full ensemble piece, an intervention, a live performance, a visual art piece, an installation, a video, a happening, working with technology, via social media, totally interactive or some other form newly imagined. All works should translate to or work within a public environment, and should actively engage intentional and incidental audiences.
Founded in 2005, the Africa Centre provides a platform for exploring contemporary Pan-African arts and cultural practice as a catalyst for social change. The Africa Centre’s has been structured to: formulate innovative models for presenting, debating and encouraging cultural production and the pursuit of knowledge; provide broad access to the creative work and ideas of historical and contemporary African thought leaders; and re-examine the role, identity, transience and creation of cultural expression.

Pre-existing work or proposals for new work will be considered for acceptance.
Proposals for work that is of a live/ temporary/ experimental nature or engaged or situated in non-art contexts in Galway city are also welcome.

TULCA 2012 Open Submission is open to Irish and international artists working in all media in direct response to the curatorial concept. Tulca 2012 is to be curated by Greg McCartney whose curatorial focus is on, in the widest sense landscape. Whether its arrogance, over-confidence or simply complacency we tend to take our personal landscapes for granted. Until there’s a sudden seismic shift and we’re left wondering what went wrong and who exactly is to blame. Tulca 2012 will be all about landscape, progression/regression, in essence change. It is about psychological landscapes as much as the physical geography. An interest in landscape is at its heart an interest in people and how they react to transformation. The rationale behind this year’s Tulca is a response to the current economic circumstances in Ireland and Europe and the sudden revisions this has caused.

call for entries: DEUS EX MACHINA
•Application Deadline
20.08.2012

Each work submitted must be accompanied by a $10 non-refundable entry fee.

The aim of the smacznego! Foundation (pl for ‘tasty!’) is to investigate sidetracks and verges of culture. This is often the place where most interesting phenomena are hidden along with their creators, whose firm noncomformism condemns them for both social and artistic exclusion. Our foundation is commited to the task of revealing at least some of the brave ideas of people, for whom so-called ‘artistic community’ is an artificial and too narrow-minded a milieu. Our interests consist primarily of visual arts and music. An important facet of our activities is also an attempt to form social awareness of marginalized artistic phenomena of Polish art. But we are also open to co-operate with artists beyond boundaries.

Call for papers: Cybernetics Revisited
•Application Deadline
31.08.2012
What if we explore Pickering’s arguments further and locate them into the interactive media art field, thereby investigating the status of cybernetics today in art, technology and science? What levels of ‘order’ and systematic communication enter into the transdisciplinary artistic, technological and scientific set-up of present-day cross-domain laboratories, and practice-based theoretical production and experiments?
Von Foerster coined the idea of a ‘cybernetics of cybernetics’ as a way to analyze the control of control and the (set-up of) communication of communication(-systems). The question is if a ‘third order’ cybernetics is emerging… and, if so, what would it entail?
Paper Proposals dealing with one or more of the following subjects within this conceptual framing will be welcome: (Norbert) Wiener Classic, Cybernetics (art and politics), Bio-cybernetics, Interactive media art – towards a ‘third order’?

Reflective practice; as a form of self analysis or critique of one’s creative working process, is an important means of developing an intimate understanding of the work itself. Allowing for a meditative review of the artist’s chosen processes and methodologies, this system of documentation and analysis contributes to the development of their practice in terms of progressive evaluation and self awareness.
Online blogs, written journals, sketchbooks and audio and video logs are popular outlets for ongoing reflective documentation. Occupy Paper are interested in uncovering contemporary examples of these with the intent of highlighting the various techniques and structures employed by artists.
