     As a newly emerged, fast-growing branch in information technology and
     com-puter science, Active Media Technology (AMT) strongly
     emphasizes on the in-creasingly important proactive roles of
     computational systems and media in dif-ferent aspects of digital life.
     This conference will particularly focus on (i) the current state of research
     and development in theory, art, and science of AMT, and (ii) the
     demonstration of the latest architectures, prototypes, tools, and field-ed
     systems that demonstrate or enable AMT. The topics of interest include,
     but are not limited to:
     
        - Human-Machine Collaboration, Self-Adapting Computers,
        - Face and Gesture Recognition, Learning, Visualization,
        - Evolutionary Art, Models of Emotion, Motivation, or Personality,
        - Smart Environments, Wearable Computers, Hand-Held or
        - Satellite-Based Devices and Avatars,
        - Multi-Agent Systems, Multi-Modal Interfaces, Smart Materials,
        - Collaborative Information Gathering,
        - Virtual Marketplace or Community, Internet Ecology,
        - Augmented Reality, Knowledge Network, Personalization,
        - Distributed Softbots and Netbots, Synthetic Agents and Believable,
        - Pervasive Technology, Push Technology, Multi-Modal
        - Content/Service Delivery, Active Perception.
