Hoje, cheguei a Dubai para participar do simpósio e exposição do ISEA 2014, 20th International Symposium on Electronic Art. São 8 dias de workshops, palestras, comunicações de artigos, performances, exposições de arte. O programa da conferência é extenso e pode ser visto aqui http://www.isea2014.org/en/Symposium_program/conference_overview.aspx. Nesta edição do ISEA, participo apresentando o artigo “Sensing Baia de Todos os Santos bay and Paraguaçu river” sobre o percurso de Salvador a Cachoeira que fizemos no projeto Sensorium: do mar para o rio. E na exposição vou montar uma versão da instalação do Ecoarte sobre o mesmo percurso chamada “Sensorium in correlations. A journey from the sea to the river”.
