Wed Nov 27 05:54:05 UTC 2013

The Libre Graphics Meeting 2014 will take place 2. – 5. April 2014 in Leipzig, Germany.

This yearly event is an occasion for projects and individual contributors/artists from all over the world to work together, to share experiences and to hear about new ideas.

By Libre Graphics we mean Free, Libre and Open Source tools for design, illustration, photography, typography, art, graphics, page layout, publishing, cartography, animation, video, interactive media, generative graphics and visual live-coding. The Libre Graphics Meeting is not just about software, but extends to standards, file formats and actual use of these in creative work.

We are looking for:

- In-depth presentations on Libre Graphics technologies
- Showcases of excellent work made using Libre Graphics tools
- New projects in this area to meet the wider community
- Reports, use-cases, best practices
- New emerging media; breaking free from analog constraints
- Well articulated ideas for future approaches, tools and standards

Available formats (including questions):

- Lightning talk (10 minutes, selected at the event unconference style)
- Presentations (20 minutes extendable to 40 minutes)
- Entry for State of the Libre Graphics Union (1-2 slides)
- Workshops (2 hours or more)
- Birds Of a Feather (BOF), discussion meetings or Hackathons (2 hrs or more)
