IE2007, the Fourth Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment, which takes place December 3-5, 2007 in Melbourne, Australia, has called for panel and paper proposals.
The Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment, hosted by RMIT University and in its fourth year, is a cross-disciplinary conference that brings together researchers from artificial intelligence, cognitive science, media studies, drama, HCI, psychology, interactive media, cultural studies, graphics, audio, as well as researchers from other disciplines working on new game specific technologies or providing critical analysis of games and interactive environments.
