  12th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on
 Functional Art, Music, Modelling and Design
		    (FARM)
   Call for Papers, Demos, and Performance
       Milan, Italy, 2nd September 2024
	       Deadline: June 1
       https://functional-art.org/2024

```

## Key Dates

Submission deadline June 1 (AoE)  
Author notification July 1  
Camera-ready deadline July 15  
Workshop September 2

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.

## Call for Papers

The ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional Art, Music,  
Modelling and Design (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.

In addition to the main workshop, FARM hosts a traditional evening of  
performances. Thus, this call encompasses both papers/demos for the  
workshop (and its published proceedings) as well as performance  
proposals for the evening’s event. Authors are invited to make a  
single submission for each. Authors may submit both a paper/demo and  
performance proposal, but the submissions will be considered  
independently.

## Note on Finances

Paid registration to the FARM workshop is usually required for paper  
and demo submitters, but will be waived for performers.

If you would have financial difficulty attending, you can apply for  
conference “PAC” funds. Please get in touch for more information.

## Papers

Paper submissions are invited in three categories:

- Original research
- Overview / state of the art
- Technology tutorial (especially tools and environments for distributed artistic workflow)

Papers must be submitted via HotCRP ([https://farm24.hotcrp.com](https://farm24.hotcrp.com))  
and meet the following requirements:

- 5 to 12 pages
- PDF format
- Adhere to the ACM SIGPLAN template

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library as part  
of the FARM 2024 proceedings.

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.

## Demos

Demo submissions should describe a demonstration and its context,  
connecting it with the themes of FARM. A demo could be in the form of  
a short (10 to 20 minute) tutorial, a presentation of work in  
progress, an exhibition of some work, or even a performance.

Demos must be submitted via HotCRP ([https://farm24.hotcrp.com](https://farm24.hotcrp.com))  
and meet the following requirements:

- 500 to 2000 words
- Have a title starting with “Demo: ”
- PDF format
- Adhere to the ACM SIGPLAN template ([SIGPLAN Proceedings Format](https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/ProceedingsFormat))

Accepted demos will be published in the ACM Digital Library as part of  
the FARM 2024 proceedings.

## Performances

FARM seeks proposals for performances which employ programming  
techniques (or are generated by programs), in whole or in part. We  
invite a diverse range of functionally-themed submissions including  
music, video, dance, and performance art. Both live performances and  
fixed-media submissions are welcome. We encourage risk-taking  
proposals that push forward the state of the art as well as refined  
presentations of highly developed practice. In either case, please  
support your submission with a clear description of your performance,  
including how your performance employs functional programming and a  
discussion of influences and prior art as appropriate. If desired, you  
may use some of your performance time for a short lecture or  
presentation; this must supplement, and not take the place of, a  
primary performance.

Performance proposals should be emailed to  
[performance@functional-art.org](mailto:performance@functional-art.org) or submitted via HotCRP, and must  
include:

- A description of the performance (please be as specific as possible)
- An explanation of the use of functional programming in the work
- A list of technical requirements
- A link to an audio or video example (YouTube, Vimeo, Bandcamp, etc.)

Accepted performances will be presented at the performance evening.

## Workshop Organization

Program Chair: Mae Milano (Princeton University)  
Workshop Chair: Stephen Taylor (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)
