Digital¹08: Imagination On Behalf Of Our Planet

10th International Digital Print Open Competition/Exhibition
at the New York Hall of Science
October 4, 2008 ­ January 25, 2009
Organized by Art & Science Collaborations, Inc.

INTRODUCTION 

What are the artists, designers, architects, scientists, and technologists
of the twenty-first century thinking about our current environmental
challenges? Can their artwork imagine new, positive approaches to sustaining
life on Earth? Can it inspire us to confront the consequences of our current
ways of living? Through the almost limitless possibilities of digital image
technologies, we invite our competition entrants to examine their
environmental concerns, indulge their fantasies, and then share their
fabricated/montaged visions of how a sustainable future might look, which
might include new types of hybrid forms: plants, animals, humans, cities,
transportation systems, food, etc.
Let's boldly envision on behalf of our planet!

ASCI's SUPPORT OF DIGITAL PRINTS:
ASCI was one of the first organizations in the world to recognize the
digital print as a valid fine art product in 1998 by organizing an afternoon
panel discussion, "Collectibility & the Digital Print."  The event was held
in The Great Hall at Cooper Union, New York City, in conjunction with ASCI's
first international digital print competition/exhibition.
