CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE ISMAR 2017 Workshop on Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality for Creative Industries
October 13th, 2017 in Nantes.

We are pleased to announce the IEEE ISMAR Workshop on Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality for Creative Industries. The workshop will take place in Nantes on October 13th, 2017. It is organized in cooperation with the West Creative Industries cluster for Education and Innovation in Pays de la Loire.
The recent development of new and low-cost VR/AR technologies have pushed many creative companies, artists and designers to create new VR and AR experiences, exploring new interactions, new creative content and new environments. The production of these new VR and AR experiences tackle both technical, human and creative aspects. It is, thus, time to mix creative and technological viewpoints to share common understandings and lessons to provide better experiences for the final users. In this context, the workshop aims to foster participation of artists and designers as humanities scientists (philosophy, literature, etc.) to meet up with usual ISMAR attendance.

Topics of interest:
Include, but are not limited to:
* Innovative interaction design with VR/AR systems
* User feedback and Quality of Experience assessment for VR/AR content creation
* Quality of Experience as an artistic intention in VR/AR
* Usage of VR/AR technologies in art performances and design
* Narrative studies/Storytelling in VR/AR
* Create in/with VR/AR, VR/AR platforms/tools to support design and art creation
* Theoretical issues in VR/AR: philosophical, aesthetic or sociological aspects (relationship to reality, « bubble effect », etc.).
