Digital Intelligence 2014 (#di2014) is a new international scientific and
interdisciplinary conference dedicated to digital society and cultures.
The challenge is to bring together researchers from various disciplines in
order to discuss and contribute to shape a new scientific and cultural
paradigm. #di2014 will be jointly organized with Scopitone, the main
French Festival on digital arts and electronic music (Scopitone 2014,
Sept. 16-21, 2014). The program will be built around four main components:
plenary invited talks, contributed talks in parallel sessions, artistic
sessions, performances and works shared with the Scopitone festival and
finally sessions and events related to the (real) economy of digital
cultures.
