<span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;"><font
face="arial,sans-serif" size="2">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.<br>
</font></span><br>
<font face="arial,sans-serif" size="2">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.
<span></span> </font><br>
<font face="arial,sans-serif" size="2">For over a decade, LEA has
thrived as an <em>international peer reviewed electronic journal </em>and
web archive covering the interaction of the arts, sciences, and
technology. </font>
<font face="arial,sans-serif"><font size="2"><strong>On average 5 - 10%
of manuscripts received are eventually published. </strong>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. </font></font><br>
<font size="-0"><font face="arial,sans-serif" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;"><font face="arial,sans-serif"
size="2">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.
