4th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional Art, Music, Modelling 
and Design

Call for Papers and Demos

The ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional Art, Music, Modelling 
and Design (FARM) gathers together people who are harnessing functional 
techniques in the pursuit of creativity and expression.

Functional Programming has emerged as a mainstream software development 
paradigm, and its artistic and creative use is booming. A growing number of 
software toolkits, frameworks and environments for art, music and design 
now employ functional programming languages and techniques. FARM is a forum 
for exploration and critical evaluation of these developments, for example 
to consider potential benefits of greater consistency, tersity, and closer 
mapping to a problem domain.

FARM encourages submissions from across art, craft and design, including 
textiles, visual art, music, 3D sculpture, animation, GUIs, video games, 3D 
printing and architectural models, choreography, poetry, and even VLSI 
layouts, GPU configurations, or mechanical engineering designs. Theoretical 
foundations, language design, implementation issues, and applications in 
industry or the arts are all within the scope of the workshop.  The 
language used need not be purely functional ("mostly functional" is fine), 
and may be manifested as a domain specific language or tool.  Moreover, 
submissions focusing on questions or issues about the use of functional 
programming are within the scope.

We welcome submissions from academic, professional, and independent 
programmers and artists.
Submissions are invited in three categories:

1) Original papers

We solicit original papers in the following categories:

* original research
* overview / state of the art
* technology tutorial

All submissions must propose an original contribution to the FARM theme. 
FARM 2016 is an interdisciplinary conference, so a wide range of approaches 
are encouraged. An original paper should have 5 to 12 pages, be in portable 
document format (PDF), using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines and use the 
ACM SIGPLAN template (http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/). Accepted 
papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library as part of the FARM 
2016 proceedings. See http://authors.acm.org/main.cfm for information on 
the options available to authors. Authors are encouraged to submit 
auxiliary material for publication along with their paper (source code, 
data, videos, images, etc.); authors retain all rights to the auxiliary 
material.

2) Demo proposals

Demo proposals should describe a demonstration to be given at the FARM 
workshop and its context, connecting it with the themes of FARM. A demo 
could be in the form of a short (10-20 minute) tutorial, presentation of 
work-in-progress, an exhibition of some work, or even a performance.  Demo 
proposals should be in plain text, HTML or Markdown format, and not exceed 
2000 words. A demo proposal should be clearly marked as such, by prepending 
`Demo Proposal:` to the title. Demo proposals will be published on the FARM 
website.  A summary of the demo performances will also be published as part 
of the conference proceedings, to be prepared by the program chair.

3) Calls for collaboration

Calls for collaboration should describe a need for technology or expertise 
related to the FARM theme. Examples may include but are not restricted to:

* art projects in need of realization
* existing software or hardware that may benefit from functional programming
* unfinished projects in need of inspiration

Calls for collaboration should be in plain text, HTML or Markdown format, 
and not exceed 5000 words. A call for collaboration should be clearly 
marked as such, by prepending `Call for Collaboration:` to the title. Calls 
for collaboration will be published on the FARM website.

AUTHORS TAKE NOTE: The official publication date is the date the 
proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be 
up to two weeks prior to the first day of your conference. The official 
publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to 
published work.

If you have any questions about what type of contributions that might be 
suitable, or anything else regarding submission or the workshop itself, 
please contact the organizers at: farm-2...@functional-art.org

All presentations at FARM 2016 will be recorded.  Permission to publish the 
resulting video (in all probability on YouTube, along with the videos of 
ICFP itself and the other ICFP-colocated events) will be requested on-site.

Key Dates:
Submission deadline - June 24
Author Notification - 15 July
Camera Ready - 31 July
Workshop - September 24, 2016
