Expressive 2025 - Call for Posters, Demos and Artworks

by Eurographics Mailing List

Expressive 2025 will host an exhibition for artworks, posters, and demonstration projects, where artistic pieces, computational demonstrations, and posters will be featured side-by-side. This category focuses on recent research and creative activities at the intersection of arts and sciences. We are open to any work and research related to the Expressive 2025 conference topics. The authors of accepted works will be invited to present their work (as posters or interactive demo sessions) through a panel discussion at the main Expressive 2025 conference. Accepted works will be archived through the <https://diglib.eg.org/> Eurographics Digital Library and will be made available in the ACM Digital Library. All submissions should be between 2 and 4 pages, written in English, including a title page with an abstract, keywords, and a bibliography. The required LaTeX template is available <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025> from the SRM system. Submissions should provide a clear description of the work and the process. Posters and demos will be demonstrated and/or displayed at the conference venue. Authors of accepted works in all areas of submitted work are encouraged to demonstrate their work; creating a separate submission for a poster and a demo is unnecessary if they refer to the same project.

Expressive 2025 - Call for Full Papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

Expressive 2025 ( <http://expressive.graphics/2025/> http://expressive.graphics/2025/) will take place in London, UK, on May 12th 2025 - co-located with Eurographics 2025. The Expressive Symposium explores the capacity of computer graphics, animation, and computational media to be used in artistic, aesthetic, and creative ways. The field can be seen as encompassing problems in expressive understanding, expressive communication, and expressive interaction: * Expressive understanding integrates aspects of computer science, philosophy, psychology, and the fine, applied, and performing arts, investigating theoretical approaches that further our understanding of aesthetic evaluation, perception and meaning. * Expressive communication focuses on imagery and motion, which is expressive rather than photorealistic, although it may incorporate realistic elements. * Expressive interaction explores models, algorithms, and technologies for sketch-based and XR interfaces, particularly classifying and recognizing hand-drawn shapes as a way to create or edit digital models, text, mathematics, or 3D shapes. Paper submissions are invited across the broad range of areas covered by Expressive. We welcome papers in several categories: Research: New algorithms, scientific studies, analysis, or data (i.e., traditional academic papers). * Research papers must contain novel results that substantially contribute to the field. * Production: Candid discussion of creating a work (e.g., film, image, game) or developing a tool (e.g., paint or CAD program, software library). We are equally interested in papers on using existing techniques combined in novel ways or their application in a new or unusual context. * Creative: Descriptions of original creative projects or analyses of expressive techniques used in artworks, performances, or computational design projects. Creative papers should highlight artistic innovation, and we encourage artists submitting to the Expressive 2025 Art Exhibition also to submit a creative paper describing their project. * Meta: Research statements that do not contain new results, e.g.: grand challenges, position papers, evaluation standards, surveys, and primers on art/aesthetics/psychophysics for a computer science audience. We welcome papers that discuss the challenges of bridging computational expression across disciplines. Submissions can also overlap more than one of these categories. At Expressive 2025, the Technical Papers program will have two integrated paper tracks: Journal (Elsevier Computers & Graphics) and Conference. The papers can be submitted through: - Elsevier Computers and Graphics submission portal (Link: <https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx> https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx - Note: please select VSI: Expressive Media 2025). After reviews, the best papers will be retained for publication in the C&G journal, while other high-quality papers that do not reach the C&G bar will be redirected to the conference paper track. The submitted papers must be anonymous and formatted according to the C&G guidelines. There is no strict page limit, but the length should justify the contribution. - SRM submission system (Link: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025) - The papers submitted through SRM will only be considered for the conference track. The conference proceedings will be made available online via Eurographics Digital Library. They will also be archived in the ACM Digital Library.

Paper Length and Format Published proceedings will be archived in the Eurographics Digital Library. Furthermore, a curated selection of accepted papers will be featured in a special issue of the Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum (CGF) journal. CGF papers will be selected based on reviewer recommendations, the outcome of a second review cycle, and HPG committee deliberation. There is no fixed maximum length for a paper. However, the magnitude of the contribution must be proportional to the length of the paper. Papers longer than 10 typeset pages in the final format must make a very significant contribution to be accepted. Writing plays an important role in the assessment. Omitting important details or tampering with formatting rules may cause a paper to be graded lower than a longer paper that is clearly written, without being repetitive or verbose. We encourage the use of supplemental material for ancillary content such as videos, image comparisons, or source code. Submission Guidelines Submissions should use SRM, which includes format information for Eurographics. These format requirements match that of Computer Graphics Forum, so curated papers should not need modification before publication. Reviews will be double-blind. We request that authors do not include their names, affiliations, or other identifying information in manuscripts under consideration. We try to be as permissive as possible while still taking all reasonable steps to preserve anonymity during the review process. Please do not make public statements on the submission status of your paper until acceptance has been confirmed. Before your paper is accepted: * You may upload a version of your submission, for example as a technical report or to arXiv (or similar services), but please do not mention HPG. * You may give presentations about your work, without saying it is submitted to HPG. One author of each accepted paper is expected to register for the conference and to present the work in person. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via <mailto:papers@highperformancegraphics.org> papers(a)highperformancegraphics.org.
