The Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No: 1071-4391) is inviting
papers [and artworks] that deal with the emerging data-based
spatial practice of Locative Media.
Across a broad range of contexts the interface between data
environments and location has emerged as a central concern,
reversing the trend towards digital content being viewed as
placeless, or only encountered in the amorphous space of the
internet. Artists have long been concerned with place and
location, but the combination of mobile devices with positioning
technologies opens up a manifold of different ways in which
geographical space can be encountered and drawn. An emerging field
of creative practice is coalescing around artists and
technologists who are exploring the use of portable, networked,
location-aware computing devices for social interfaces to places
and artistic interventions in which geographical space becomes a
canvas.
