[ECVP2013]

The 36th European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP) will take place in
Bremen, Germany, from August 25th to August 29th 2013.

 

 

----------------------------- TRAVEL GRANTS-----------------------------

 

ECVP is offering a number of Travel Grants. Application is open via
http://www.ecvp.uni-bremen.de/node/42. Travel grants will be awarded
competitively to a limited number of attendees. Please submit your
application via our Web-site, according to the guidelines stated there. For
any inquiries please mail to ecvptravel at ecvp.uni-bremen.de. 

Check also the call for the TOM TROSCIANKO AWARD, announced this year for

-------------------------------- SHOWTIME--------------------------------

 

Following on from its success last year, we will be holding a second
"ShowTime" at this year's ECVP in Bremen.  This will be an opportunity for
anyone attending the meeting to present a demonstration or exhibit that is
related to their research.  We would like to invite all those coming to the
meeting to submit a brief proposal (100 words max) of what they would like
to show or demonstrate. This might be a new visual effect (that could be
related to a presentation actually scheduled as a paper or poster at the
conference); a well-known illusion; an old effect presented in a new way; a
novel piece of equipment or apparatus; or something artistic that is
visually exciting.  We would like to encourage many submissions and we
should be able to help you if your "Show" needs a projector, screen,
poster-board or similar equipment. 

Please email your proposal to  <mailto:showtime2013 at ecvp.uni-bremen.de>
showtime2013 at ecvp.uni-bremen.de giving approximate details of how much space
would be needed and what (if any) facilities you would like the organisers
to provide.  (There will be a number of small rooms that can be blacked out
completely if this is essential to your demonstration.). Please send your
proposal not later than June, 15th to provide us sufficient time for setting
up the event.

ECVP2013 "ShowTime" will be held on Tuesday evening (August, 27th).  There
will be two prizes for the best "Shows" - a Richard Gregory prize for the
most amusing demonstration and a Tom Troscianko prize for the most
outrageous exhibit.
