SUMMARY:Biology
DESCRIPTION:Art Papers\n\nThe conference theme, “Curious Minds,” applies t
 o both artists exploring new technologies and critics evaluating their eff
 ectiveness and meaning. Following our curiosity, we artists have misused s
 ystems, hacked devices, devised unusual algorithms and processes, and expr
 essed new colors and forms. What motivates our curiosity, and what are the
  consequences of our efforts? Why obsess over something that no one else s
 eems to care about, or doesn’t have immediate or practical value? Why do s
 omething that someone else finds disturbing? Why here and now? Why you? Wh
 at roles do artists and critics have in shaping the future of computer gra
 phics and interactive techniques?\n\nJoin us in Tokyo this December as we 
 delve into the complex tapestry of Curious Minds. Explore how technology c
 an both disrupt and unify, offering new ways to understand and engage with
  our multifaceted existence and curiosity. Be part of the conversation and
  connect with the vibrant SIGGRAPH arts community here: Digital Arts Commu
 nity (DAC) Of SIGGRAPH Asia.\n\nQ&A\n\nQ&A for the session.\n\n-----------
 ----------\nBecoming Bats with "EchoVision": Towards Eco-Phenomenological 
 Mixed Reality\n\nWhat is it like to be a bat? "EchoVision" is a mixed real
 ity art experience that simulates bat echolocation, immersing participants
  in the perceptual umwelt of bats. Using a custom-designed, handheld, bat-
 shaped mask based on the open-source HoloKit mixed reality headset, partic
 ipants visualize echo...\n\n\nBotao Amber Hu (Reality Design Lab), Jiabao

 n---------------------\nExploring Fungal Morphology Simulation and Dynamic
  Light Containment from a Graphics Generation Perspective\n\nFungal simula
 tion and control are considered crucial techniques in Bio-Art creation. Ho
 wever, coding algorithms for reliable fungal simulations have posed signif
 icant challenges for artists. This study equates fungal morphology simulat
 ion to a two-dimensional graphic time-series generation problem. ...\n\n\n

 ature through the Mixed Reality Lens of Plant-Environment Interactions\n\n
 This paper presents a hybrid plants-driven mixed reality (MR) system, Eye 
 of Flora, which re-engages humans with nature from a more-than-human persp
 ective. Eye of Flora integrates plants into digital twin systems by mergin
 g plant electrophysiology with 3D reconstruction technologies. Utilizing A

  Software\n\nThis article discusses the conceptual underpinnings, creative
  process, and research methods used to create the immersive installation t
 itled "bug in my software".  "bug in my software" reflects on tensions bet
 ween gender, labor, and technology, by drawing parallels from the engineer
 ed lifecycle and ...\n\n\nAlina Nazmeeva (University of Illinois Urbana-Ch
