Call for Papers
The International Conference on Culture and Computing (Culture and Computing 2013)
Date: September 16-18, 2013 Venue: Nakagawa Hall, Suzaku Campus, Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto, Japan http://www.media.ritsumei.ac.jp/culture2013/
Culture and Computing is a new research area which aims to overcome different cultural issues in international communities using information and communication technologies (ICT). There are various research directions in the relations between culture and computing:
to archive cultural heritages via ICT (cf. digital archives), to empower humanities researches via ICT (cf. digital humanities), to create art and expressions via ICT (cf. media art), to realize a culturally situated agent (cf. cultural agent), to support multi-language, multi-cultural societies via ICT (cf. intercultural collaboration), and to understand new cultures born in the Internet and Web (cf. net culture).
The International Conference on Culture and Computing provides an opportunity to share research issues and discuss the future of culture and computing, which has been held in cultural cities including Kyoto, Japan (2010, 2011) and Hangzhou, China (2012). The fourth conference (Culture and Computing 2013) will be back to Kyoto, the cultural heart of Japan, organized with an exhibition on the integration of state of the art cultural computing technologies and Japanese traditional culture, along with a number of co-located events. To understand the proceedings at the previous conferences, please visit below.
