International Symposium on Computational Aesthetics in Graphics, Visualization, and Imaging Date: May 28--30, 2009 Location: Victoria, British Columbia, Canada http://www.cs.rug.nl/svcg/cae2009/ Computational Aesthetics bridges the analytic and synthetic by integrating aspects of computer science, philosophy, psychology, and the fine, applied & performing arts. It seeks to facilitate both the analysis and the augmentation of creative behaviour. CAe also investigates the creation of tools that can enhance the expressive power of the fine and applied arts and furthers our understanding of aesthetic evaluation, perception and meaning.

Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena: CFP

by Stefanie Behnke

Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena Munich, Germany, March 29, 2009 Workshop Chairs Eric Galin, F Jens Schneider, D Program Chairs Ming Lin, USA Michael Jones, UK Eric Galin, F Aims and Scope Synthesizing realistic natural scenes is a challenging and important problem in computer graphics. The challenge stems not only from the complexity and diversity of objects and natural phenomena interacting together, but also from the huge amount of small details that should be modeled to obtain realistic models and physically plausible simulations. Therefore, there is still a need for interactive modeling and simulation techniques capable for handling complex synthetic sceneries. The purpose of this workshop is to explore novel techniques for modeling, animating, simulating and rendering complex natural phenomena. The workshop will build on work done in recent years including simulating aging and weathering of synthetic objects, plant modeling, ecosystem simulation, gaseous phenomena and liquid flows. It will focus on non conscious or inanimate nature like rock, trees, oceans, wind, meadows (animals and humans as part of nature should be excluded). Work in this area, promising as it is, is still far from complete. Authors are invited to submit technical papers in these or related areas. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Plant structure modeling - Ecosystem simulation - Gaseous phenomena (clouds, fog) - Simulating liquid flows and rain - Modeling fire and smoke - Aging and weathering - Terrain modeling Workshop Format The workshop will take place just before the Eurographics'09 Conference (March 29, Munich, Germany) to encourage a broad range of participants. As such, it will provide a very interesting opportunity for researchers that want to attend or present communications at both events. The workshop will be held in one day, including paper presentation and invited sessions. Participation is open to everyone, not requiring submission of a paper. Important Dates December 16, 2008 Submission deadline January 30, 2009 Notification of acceptance February 14, 2009 Deadline for camera-ready copies March 29, 2009 Workshop (one full day) For more information, please contact eric.galin(a)liris.cnrs.fr.
