OVERVIEW
Enactive/07 .... Enaction_in_Arts will be held on November 19-22, 2007,
in Grenoble, France. This is an international scientific and cultural
event, promoted by the European Network of Excellence ENACTIVE. Seizing
the opportunity of its organisation in Grenoble, an historical place in
France for Innovation in Arts, Enactive/07 - 4th International Conference
on Enactive Interfaces will be extended by an exceptional intellectual
and artistic event: Enaction_in_Arts. 

In the continuation of previous editions, Enactive / 07 aims at promoting
the concept of Enaction in the field of Information and Communication
Technologies, and at encouraging the emergence of a multidisciplinary
research community in a new field of research and on a new generation of
human-computer interfaces called Enactive Interfaces.
