Applications
at the intersection of art and visualization have become a recurring theme at
visualization, graphics, and HCI conferences. Inspirations from artistic
movements, artistic practice, and the field of aesthetics have stimulated
visualization research with an increasing number of practitioners creating
works that transcend these fields. Performance, sonic, and visual artists,
designers, and architects have capitalized on innovations from the computing
sciences, expanding their semiology, to create radically new representations of
form and process. At the core of all works is the concept of information, its
transformation, and its representation. It is at this nexus that the symposium
resides. Its goal is to develop and promote an expanding dialog among individuals
and groups working in the digital information arts, sciences, and technologies,
by providing a venue for discussions about their works and the processes
through which they were created. 
 
Submissions
to this symposium are invited from the breadth of the digital arts, science,
and technology, including artists, scientists, technologists, designers,
architects, psychologists, historians, critical theorists, practitioners, and
others. Theories, applications, analyses, case studies, reviews, and manifestos
that address all manner of process or product are welcome. Topics include, but
are not limited to:
