Artech 2008. Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Digital Arts

Abstract

ARTECH 2008 was the fourth international conference held in Portugal and Galicia on the topic of Digital Arts. It aimed at promoting contacts between Iberian and International contributors concerned with the conception, production and dissemination of Digital and Electronic Art. ARTECH brings the scientific, technological and artistic community together, promoting the interest in the digital culture and its intersection with art and technology as an important research field, a common space for discussion, an exchange of experiences, a forum for emerging digital artists and a way of understanding and appreciating new forms of cultural expression. Hosted by the Portuguese Catholic University’s School of Arts (UCP-EA) at the City of Porto, ARTECH 2008 was in alignment with the main commitment of the Research Center for Science and Technology of the Arts (CITAR) to promote knowledge in the field of the Arts through research and development within UCP-AE and together with the local and international community. This is the book of proceedings of Artech 2008.
