<h4>Lovely Weather: Art & Climate Change Projects 2010</h4>
<p class="mainText"><a href="http://www.leonardo.info/isast/announcements/LovelyWeatherProjects_2010.html"><img src="http://leonardo.info/images/LovelyWeather_90.jpg" align="left" border="0"></a>Leonardo/Olats and Donegal County Council present the five projects for <strong>Lovely Weather: Art & Climate Change</strong>, a ground-breaking art & science project that examines the issue of climate change in Donegal, Ireland. The selected artists are:
<strong>Peter d’Agostino</strong> (USA), <strong>Seema Goel</strong> (Canada), <strong>The League of Imaginary Scientists</strong> (USA), <strong>Antony Lyons</strong> (UK), and <strong>Softday</strong> (Ireland). The selected artists have taken an interdisciplinary approach to their work and have actively involved citizens from their respective areas in their projects to consider questions about climate and its changes on a practical level. The final projects will be featured in an exhibition at the Regional Cultural Centre (Ireland) in November 2010, and will be accompanied by an international conference and publication. <a href="http://www.leonardo.info/isast/announcements/LovelyWeatherProjects_2010.html">Find out more</a></p>
<h3>Publications</h3>
<h4>LMJ 21 Call for Papers<br>
Beyond Notation: Communicating Music</h4>
<p class="mainText">Peer-to-peer file exchange, the iTunes store, MySpace, Pandora – by 2010
it's obvious that the Internet has radically transformed the economy and
culture of selling, distributing, owning and hearing recorded music.
Less discussed is the Web's impact on that part of music that used to be
called "the score" – instructions, suggestions and materials for
performing, rather than consuming, music. For Volume 21 of <strong>Leonardo Music Journal</strong> we solicit papers that address the impact of technological change on how we distribute instructions and materials for
musical performance. <strong>Deadline for abstracts extended to November 15, 2010</strong>. <a href="http://www.leonardo.info/lmj/lmj21call.html">Find out more</a></p>
