Call for Interactive/Digital Art Submissions - ACM Multimedia 2025

ACM Multimedia is the premier international conference in the area of multimedia within the field of computer science. The 2025 ACM Multimedia conference takes place in Dublin, Ireland, from 27 October – 31 October 2025. Multimedia research focuses on technologies that enable the use and exchange of content integrating the multiple perspectives of different digital modalities, including images, text, video, audio, speech, music, and sensor data. As in previous years, ACM Multimedia is calling for work addressing the artistic side of these perspectives. Specifically, we invite original works from practitioners and researchers creating innovative and culturally rich multimedia systems with artistic merit. Given the recent developments in foundation models and generative approaches for all modalities of multimedia, we seek works showcasing interactions of humans and machines with humanly and automatically created digital content, highlighting and reflecting upon creativity, discovery, and critical thinking on every aspect involved. We welcome works that especially deal with fusions, intersections, transformations, and paradigm shifts of human and AI generated technologies; works that provoke contemplation, address contemporary issues, and interactively engage viewers in discovery and stimulate intellectual adventure and creativity. Exemplary Topics and Technologies comprise, but are not limited to, interactive arts using generative approaches, e.g., GANs, generative and adaptive image and sound installations, hybrid art, interactive media, digital comics, games, cultural heritage, VR/AR digital art, digital communities, digital humanism, mobile media, digital art performances, and (syn)aesthetic exploration.
