Call for Submissions to "Subtle Technologies 2001" Subtle Technologies Conference May 17,18,19,20 Toronto, Ont. Canada Sorry for any crossposting you receive. We are currently inviting speakers to present at the fourth annual Subtle Technologies Conference in Toronto. The Subtle Technologies Conference is an opportunity for scientists and artists to come together and share each others language in those areas which are still searching for definitions, explanations and meaning. This conference blurs the boundaries between art and science. We are looking for speakers to provide a global perspective on the exploration of subtle phenomena and its representations. Approaches that go beyond mainstream theories and would be considered controversial are welcome. The conference also has a mandate to explore forgotten or lost technologies. Some of the topics which we are interested in having represented by scientists and artists include but are not limited to: consciousness research, quantum physics including quantum computing and other unconventional computing technologies, holographic modeling, mathematical explorations including neural networks and fuzzy systems, biomagnetics, alternative energy systems, chaos theory, genetics, sonic explorations, alternative healing modalities, bioenergy, pharmacology, theories of cosmology, neurobiology, sensing systems and devices, cybernetics, artificial intelligence and parapsychology. It is our goal to have a varied program to provide a forum for the cross pollination of ideas. Presentations will be 50 minutes long including questions. An honorarium will be offered to all speakers. Since the audience will be from diverse backgrounds the presentation should be accessible to a general audience. Please send a brief one page abstract of the topic you would like to present to the co-ordinates listed below. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us. If you know any one who would be interested in speaking, please pass this invitation along to them. The deadline for submissions is February 15 2001. The Subtle Technologies Conference is sponsored by InterAccess Media Arts Centre and Science for Peace.
