> Dates:
> 25-26 June 2015

> Computational
> tools and media,
>
>
> from
> traditional computers and software to the latest
> wearable artifacts, sensors, haptic interfaces and
> more,
>
> have dramatically transformed the landscape of arts,
> design, and several other cultural forms.
>
>
> xCoAx
> is an exploration of this environment in the form of
> a multi-disciplinary enquiry on aesthetics,
> computation, communication and the elusive x factor
> that connects them all.
>
>
> xCoAx
> is meant as a hub for the exchange of ideas and the
> discovery of interdisciplinary and international
> synergies, with the participation of a diverse
> confluence of computer scientists, media
> practitioners and theoreticians working on the
> frontiers of digital arts and culture.
>
>
> Our
> focus has always been on critical and stimulating
> intersections: between the computable and the
> uncomputable, the communicable and the
> incommunicable, the chaos of creativity and the
> rules of algorithms, the human and the machine, in a
> constant search for new directions in aesthetics.
>
>
> The
> trail-blazing first edition of xCoAx took place in
> Bergamo, Italy in 2013 and was followed by an even
> richer 2014 edition in Porto, Portugal. They say
> “third time’s the charm”, and with such a past we
> could not be more excited for what’s to come.
