The Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No: 1071-4391) is inviting papers and
artworks that showcase MultiMedia Performance. This category includes works
which span a range of practices, which challenge the way performance has
heretofore been defined and examines the ways in which new technologies have
opened up the meaning and practice of performance.  We expect that
performance includes a live component, be it on line, in an interactive
installation, or on stage.

LEA encourages international artists / academics / researchers / students to
submit their proposals for consideration. We particularly encourage young
authors and contributors from outside North America and Europe to send
proposals for articles/gallery/artists statements (if applicable).

- A brief author biography 

- Any related URLs 

- Contact details 

 

In the subject heading of the email message, please use Name of

What is LEA? 

------------- 

 

For over a decade, Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No: 1071-4391) has
thrived as an international peer reviewed electronic journal and web archive
covering the interaction of the arts, sciences, and technology. LEA
emphasizes rapid publication of recent work and critical discussion on
topics of current excitement. Many contributors are younger scholars and
artists with a slant on shorter, less academic texts. 

 

Contents include Texts; Artists using new media; Feature Articles comprised
of theoretical and technical perspectives; the LEA Gallery exhibiting new
media artwork by international artists; Leonardo Reviews, edited by Michael
Punt, Leonardo Research Abstracts of recent Ph.D. and Masters theses,
curated Galleries of current new media artwork by international artists, and
Special Issues on topics ranging from New Media Poetry, to Zero Gravity Art,
to the History of New Media.

 

The Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA) is jointly produced by Leonardo, the
International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology (ISAST) and
published under the auspices of MIT Press.
