The event UN MARE DI ILLUSIONI (in English “A Sea of Illusions”) will be held by the sea at Molo (Pier) IV on August 28th.

​

This event is a traditional ECVP appointment that you should not miss. Formerly known as “Illusoriamente” (Alghero), “Show time” (Bremen), “Illusion night” (Belgrade), “Illusions parade” (Liverpool), “The Illusion's Night” (Barcelona), and “Night of Light” (Berlin), it is an exhibition/workshop event that will bring together scientists working in the field of visual perception and artists. Scientists and artists will exchange knowledge and expertise in the domain of perceptual illusions. The event will be in the form of an interactive gallery.

​

How to present your work in the UN MARE DI ILLUSIONI:

​

To exhibit in the gallery you will need to generate a demo of a visual illusion (if you are a scientist) or an artwork based on perceptual illusions (if you are an artist). Different materials can be used, including: visual/audiovisual platforms, projections, installations, any form of painting and sculpture.

​

Please submit to info@ecvp2018.org one pdf file containing:

​

2) A description (max 150 words) of the illusion you want to present;
