POST SCREEN: International Festival of Art, New Media and Cybercultures
November 28-29, 2014
Lisbon, Portugal

The Artistic Studies Research Center of the Faculty of Fine Arts of Lisbon University invites researchers and artists to submit, until May 31st, a proposal for a paper or artwork to the upcoming POST SCREEN: International Festival of Art, New Media and Cybercultures to be held in 28 and 29 of November 2014, in Lisbon, Portugal.

The Post-Screen 2014 is an International Festival of Art, New Media and Cybercultures and is the first edition of several international meetings related to the use of screens and its influence on contemporary thought.

This project aims to create a festival  that will annually gather a number of experts in diverse fields of research and artistic practice and promote interdisciplinary discussion and exhibition of creative productions on emerging issues related to screen based artistic practices (printing, painting, moving image, sound, digital images, virtual reality, immersive environments, network cultures), considering its evolution throughout history, the circumstances in which it was used, the aesthetic and technological language that is inherent to it, and its artistic, social, cultural and technological context.

The subject of the Post-Screen 2014 will be Device, Medium and Concept, on which we intend to discuss the specifics of these aspects and their intersections between art, technology and the social behaviors mediated by screens.

The event will have a theoretical, artistic and training component, with a cycle of conferences, an exhibition of artworks in a virtual gallery and workshops.
