Interaction of Colour & Light in the Arts and Sciences
Conference Theme
Much interest is devoted to the interaction of colour & light in today’s
scientific and artistic research communities. New technologies, materials
and media are now being deployed to enhance and stimulate our
experience of daily life in real and virtual, permanent and ephemeral
environments. The aim of the AIC 2011 conference is to explore how
the interaction of colour & light plays a crucial role in the perception,
conception and realization of spaces and platforms in different fields
from both a theoretical and practical point of view. Using terms and
concepts such as appearance, interaction, performance, event, and by
privileging the materiality, mediality and the interactive dimension of
colour & light, the conference presentations should demonstrate how
productive the theme of the INTERACTION OF COLOUR & LIGHT IN THE
ARTS AND SCIENCES is. The fields of inquiry include: education, design,
art, media, lighting, architecture, theatre, dance, as well as psychology,
colour science and technology. The AIC 2011 Midterm Meeting aims
to further discussion and nurture the latest findings in these various
fields.
