Fundación Telefónica is attempting to promote the convergence of Art, Science and Technology by holding an international competition which rewards those works of art developed using Artificial Life technologies.<br>
<br>
At previous editions, prizes were given to art projects created with robots, electronic avatars, chaotic algorithms, knowbots, cellular automatons, computer viruses, virtual ecologies which evolve by interacting with the participant and works which delve into social aspects of Artificial Life.<br>
<br>
<u>Selected Projects</u><br>
<br>
A total of 20,000 euros will be awarded to the projects selected by the jury:<br>
<br>
First prize: 10,000 euros<br>
Second prize: 7,000 euros<br>
Third prize: 3,000 euros<br>
<br>
<u>Exhibition</u><br>
<br>
The selected projects will be exhibited at the International Contemporary Art Fair (ARCO) in Madrid in February 2008.<br>
<br>
<u>Incentive for Production</u><br>
<br>
The competition's second category will help finance Artificial Life art projects (and those of associated disciplines) that have not yet been made. The competition is open to participants from anywhere in Latin America, Spain and Portugal.<br>
<br>
<u>Jury</u><br>
<br>
The works submitted will be examined by an international jury that will be meeting as of November 7, 2007. The prize winners' names and special mentions will be announced at an award ceremony.<br>
