MOCO 2017 - International Workshop on movement and computing
Topics/Call fo Papers
We would like to invite submissions for a wide variety of practice focused work for the 4th International Conference on Movement and Computing (MOCO) which is to be held in London. MOCO is open to a wide range of ways of presenting your work. We invite submission of a wide range of practice work such as demos, performances, games, artistic works and movement workshops. We encourage submitters to be creative in proposals for practice sessions and are open to novel formats.
MOCO is an interdisciplinary conference that explores the use of computational technology to support and understand human movement practice (e.g. computational analysis) as well as movement as a means of interacting with computers (e.g. motion capture, gestural analysis, sensor interfaces). This requires a wide range of computational tasks including modeling, representation, segmentation, recognition, classification, or generation of movement information but also an interdisciplinary understanding of movement that ranges from biomechanics and dance to embodied cognition and the phenomenology of bodily experience. We therefore invite submissions from a wide range of disciplines including (but not limited to): Human-Computer Interaction, Dance, Somatic Practices, Performance, Artificial Intelligence, Neuroscience, Sports Science, Machine Learning, Visual Arts, Robotics, Philosophy, Anthropology, Music, Affective Computing, Games, Sports, Healthcare and Animation.
We deliberately use a very open phrase “practice work” to encourage diverse ideas of what practice in movement and computing is and how that practice can be presented. We suggests the following as examples of what practice work might be, but also stress that the list is in no way exhaustive and any types of presentation will be considered, with the only criteria will be excellence of the work and whether it is possible to stage the work given the resources, time and space available to the conference:
Technology demos
Performances (e.g. dance, physical performance, music)
Artworks
Interactive Installations
Movement workshops (i.e. a session in which participants engage in movement based activity)
Games
Video presentations
