Open call: FEMeeting 2023 Taos

Call for presentations and for workshops

Welcome to the upcoming FEMeeting: Taos 2023 to be held on July 23-30, 2023 in the Town of Taos – New Mexico, United States. FEMeeting: Taos 2023 is organized by FEMeeting in collaboration with Agnes Chavez, founder of STEMarts Lab (El Prado, NM) and Marta de Menezes currently a Fulbright Scholar Program award 2023 at the University of New Mexico. The organization is launching a double call for conference presentations and for workshops/demos/talks. This is an extraordinary opportunity to establish direct contact with local institutions and address audiences outside of the conference hall. Our workshops/demos/talks hosts are: Taos Pueblo Education & Training DivisionUNM-HIVESTEMArts Lab and Stem Santa Fe. Our host for the public session on July 29, 2023 is the beautiful Arthur Bell Harwood auditorium in partnership with Harwood Museum of Artin Taos. SciArt Santa Fe, our partner, will be hosting the second public session on July 30, 2023 which will be held as a LASER (Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous) talk with selected participants of FEMeeting Taos 2023.

As a community FEMeeting is driven by the desire to develop and promote a more direct collaboration at the level of artistic and research projects between all individuals who identify themselves as Women, independently of their sex. In this sense, FEMeeting events aim to disseminate projects being undertaken by women worldwide and, as a result: to contribute to the development of art-science research methodologies and to the growth of cooperation strategies that can increase knowledge sharing and bring communities closer. Among FEMeeting distinguishable objectives there are: (a) a strong personal support through instant internet communication between women doing research work (in the broadest sense of the term) in art, science and technology, (b) the encouragement towards the formation of local nodes to support research and artistic creation developed to enable a wide network of direct communication among them and encourage trust, and c) the incentive to uncover and achieve legitimization of women’s work through publishing, academic and other formats. Besides the above, this FEMeeting gathering in Taos, New Mexico is an opportunity to address community issues such as all women’s health, security, diversity and sustainability, in the framework of international rights on gender equality and women empowerment, and especially to uncover the activities of indigenous women and women working with indigenous peoples and cultures.

FEMeeting 2022

As a highly international community, the program of FEMeeting 2022 “FEMeeting: Women in Art, Science and Technology” includes 90 presentations by 95 speakers from 23 countries as well as other activities to encourage communication among its participants. Taking place from 12 to 17 September 2022, the third conference has its kick-off in Lisbon, at the Institute of Molecular Medicine, and continues its program in the city of Évora, hosted in the Convento de São Bento de Castris and the Fundação Eugénio de Almeida.

 FEMeeting is driven by the desire to develop and promote a more direct collaboration at the level of artistic and research projects between all individuals who identify with the female gender. The conference aims to disseminate projects being undertaken by women worldwide and, as a result, to contribute to the development of art-science research methodologies and to the growth of cooperation strategies that can increase knowledge sharing and bring communities closer. To facilitate personal networking, most of the program is organized as closed sessions, only to the conference speakers, but the program also includes, in the first day in Lisbon and the last day in Évora, two public sessions that aim to encourage participation and attendance among all individuals interested in the topics of the conference independently of their gender.

Launched in 2017, the idea behind the conference “FEMeeting: Women in Art, Science and Technology” was orchestrated by the Portuguese artist Marta de Menezes and scholar Dalila Honorato. Alike the two first FEMeetings, FEMeeting 2022 is co-organized in Portugal by FEMeeting, Cultivamos Cultura and Direcção Regional de Cultura do Alentejo, this year with the support of Fundação Eugénio de Almeida (PT) and Intellect (UK) and in partnership with Ionian University (GR), Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (USA), University of California Los Angeles (USA), Aalto University (FI), Universidade Nacional Autonoma do México (MX), Windsor University (CA), University of Western Australia (AU), I3S – Institute of Health Innovation and Research (PT), Science for Change (ES) and Leonardo/Olats (FR).

This time the organization of FEMeeting 2022 aims the debut of part of the conference proceedings in the peer-reviewed journal Technoetic Arts and is integrating its open event in Lisbon in the LASER series, with the support of Leonardo/ISAST and as part of the project Blend, a collaboration in the field of art, science and medicine between Faculty of Medicine of the University of Lisbon, Instituto de Medicina Molecular João Lobo Antunes and Centro Hospitalar Universitário Lisboa Norte – Hospital de Santa Maria with Ectopia Experimental Art Laboratory.
