*What is LEA?
-----------------*

Established in 1993, Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No: 1071-4391)
is the electronic arm of the pioneer art journal, Leonardo - Journal
of Art, Science & Technology.

Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA), jointly produced by Leonardo, the
International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology (ISAST), and
published by MIT Press, is an electronic journal dedicated to providing a
forum for those who are interested in the realm where art, science and
technology converge.

For over a decade, LEA has thrived as an *international peer reviewed
electronic journal *and web archive covering the interaction of the arts,
sciences, and technology. *On average 5 - 10% of manuscripts received are
eventually published. *LEA emphasizes rapid publication of recent work and
critical discussion on topics of current excitement with a slant on shorter,
less academic texts. Many contributors are younger scholars, artists,
scientists, educators and developers of new technological resources in the
media arts.

Contents include profiles of media arts facilities and projects, insights of
artists using new media and feature articles comprising theoretical and
technical perspectives. Curated galleries of current new media artwork are
also a regular feature, and occasionally, LEA publishes special issues on
topics such as locative media, new media poetics, and wild nature and the
digital life.
