*/What is LEA?
-----------------/*
Established in 1993, Leonardo Electronic Almanac (ISSN No: 1071-4391) is 
the electronic arm of the pioneer art journal, Leonardo - Journal of 
Art, Science & Technology.

Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA), jointly produced by Leonardo, the 
International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology (ISAST), and 
published by MIT Press, is an electronic journal dedicated to providing 
a forum for those who are interested in the realm where art, science and 
technology converge.
For over a decade, LEA has thrived as an /international peer reviewed 
electronic journal /and web archive covering the interaction of the 
arts, sciences, and technology. *On average 5 - 10% of manuscripts 
received are eventually published. *LEA emphasizes rapid publication of 
recent work and critical discussion on topics of current excitement with 
a slant on shorter, less academic texts. Many contributors are younger 
scholars, artists, scientists, educators and developers of new 
technological resources in the media arts.
Contents include profiles of media arts facilities and projects, 
insights of artists using new media and feature articles comprising 
theoretical and technical perspectives. Curated galleries of current new 
media artwork are also a regular feature, and occasionally, LEA 
publishes special issues on topics such as locative media, new media 
poetics, and wild nature and the digital life.
