> design, illustration, photography, typography, art, graphics, page
> layout, publishing, cartography, animation, video, interactive media,

> State of the Libre Graphics Union:
> We will kick off this year’s event with a joint session that sums up
> all things that have happened in our wide landscape over the last
> year. Instead of slots in the schedule for general updates on each and
> every libre graphics project, we invite you to submit a maximum of two
> slides, show-casing new abilities and/or text enumerating the leaps
> forward that your project made.
> 
> Special focus:
> For the 2014 edition of LGM, we are specifically interested in
> presentations that showcase how the gap between technical and design
> development can be bridged. We are looking for contributions on
> computational and generative media; examples of projects where design
> decisions and experimentation is done directly with logic and code or
> indirectly with the end user providing constraints/selection of good
> results. We are interested in projects where design and development
> are considered necessary ingredients in a collaborative process done
> by peers of technological artists, using and pushing the constraints
> of creative work.
> Practical Details:
> 
> Call opens Monday 25. November 2014
> 
> Deadline: 15. January 2014. We will let you know if your presentation
> is selected by 25. January 2014 latest.
> 
> In the context of the meeting, we prefer short and concise presentations.
> 
> For each BOF or meeting that will be on the public schedule, we ask
> you to provide a report, to be made available to the Libre Graphics
> Community afterwards.
> 
> If you propose a workshop, let us know what you expect participants to
> bring, in terms of both prior experience and required items
> (sketchbook, laptop with which applications installed, etc.)
