Call for Submissions for Subtle Technologies 2007

in situ
art body medicine

May 24th – May 27th 2007
University of Toronto, Toronto Canada.

Submission Deadline January 3, 2007.

Subtle Technologies is a four-day multidisciplinary Festival exploring 
complex and subtle relationships between art and science. The annual 
international event combines symposia, exhibitions, workshops and 
performances that juxtapose cutting-edge artistic projects and 
scientific exploration.

For the 10th Annual Festival, Subtle Technologies invites practitioners 
of arts, sciences and medicines, and those who study their context, 
historians, ethicists, and other critical thinkers to contemplate how 
these disciplines can work together and reshape perspectives on the body.

As scientific and technological breakthroughs prominently occupy our 
culture, we ask where the boundaries are. We are interested in 
investigating how we relate bodies in situ: as parts, as a whole, as 
systems; how we identify, map, modify, protect, violate, and heal.

We invite a wide interpretation of bodies including the molecular, 
physical, cultural, economic, legal, political, energetic, electrical 
and spiritual.

A range of approaches are welcome, including interdisciplinary work, 
specialized presentation proposals that focus on a single topic in 
depth, and general discussions that draw upon multiple topics. We 
welcome a diversity of presentation formats, including those 
practitioners who may not emphasize the use of science and technology.

Proposals for the following will be considered:
workshops, performances, poster sessions, and symposium presentations.
