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. It is co-located
with ICFP 2017, the 22nd ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional
Programming.

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.

FARM 2017 website : http://functional-art.org/2017/


*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 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.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library as part of the
FARM 2017 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
(although see also the separate call for evening performances). 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.

4) Evening performances

There is a separate call for evening performances.

Submission is via EasyChair

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.
