A nineteenth-century inspired daguerreotype studio will be installed at the conference venue, Universidade Lusófona.
Thanks to LUPA – Luís Pavão Lda. (www.lupa.com.pt), you will rediscover one of the first techniques of photography and take the result back home with you.
This unique experience will take around 2 hours, during which you will be invited to participate in the several stages of the process: polishing the brass plate, preparing a pose with clothing and props of your choice, exposure of the plate to iodine vapors to create a light-sensitive surface, image development, fixation and gilding, and finally the packaging of the plate in a case specifically designed for this event.
Universidade Lusófona and the Fine Arts Faculty invite you to submit project proposals to the exhibition of the forthcoming International Conference on Stereo & Immersive Media: Photography and Sound Research which will be held at the Fine Arts Society facilities in Lisbon from 29 June to 21 July.
These projects (3D films/ Stereo photography/ audio and visual installations/ VR Apps) should highlight and explore the immersive features of visual and sound media.
The selected projects will be displayed at a special exhibition dedicated to immersive media art at the Fine Arts Society in Lisbon. 3D films will be screened in an international selection at Aud. Agostinho da Silva, ULHT.
Please state in your proposal the materials provided and needed for the proper exhibition of the artwork.
Photos or drawings to present your ideas are welcome.

The 3rd International Conference on Stereo & Immersive Media focuses on visual and sound media renowned for their immersive features.
Stereo and immersive technologies have been widening the fields of photography and sound since the 19th century, contributing to the emergence of a progressively immersive media culture. This conference aims to bring together photography and sound research fields bridging their historical and contemporary relationship with expanded and immersive environments (e.g. panoramas, virtual reality, sound art).
The organizing committee invites scholars, researchers, artists, curators and archivists to submit paper presentations and posters addressing one of the following themes:
