FLOSS+Art
Call for Papers
Deadline: November 1st 2007

Extended Deadline

Thanks to all the persons and groups who have replied to the call so far! Due to a growing demand for extra time, we have decided to extend the deadline. Please note that this new deadline will not be extended. Every paper/article/map received after the 1st of November 2007 midnight will not be published in the book.

people.makeart is a repository of articles and lecture materials focused on the relationship between FLOSS and digital arts. The selected papers will be published on the people.makeart website and will be printed in the FLOSS+Art book, scheduled for spring 2008, using OpenMute’s POD publishing service.
