Digital practice
Work with digital devices, new media or immersive tools that has the potential to impact creative arts therapists and interrelated professions.
Proposals are reviewed and selected to create a comprehensive and balanced symposium program with content variety. Presenters are notified of the acceptance of their proposals by the end of November 2018.
Contributions are welcome from digital design innovators, digital artists, researchers and practitioners in the creative arts therapies, eHealth clinicians, game designers, and people using gaming technologies in therapy or education, as well as those using immersive technologies for educational or therapeutic practice.
How to submit
Email your proposal form and any additional documents to [email protected]. Please include the proposed format, whether the session is live, pre recorded or experiential, and the hive you would like to join where relevant.
Presenters often belong to professional bodies whose work connects closely with the symposium, including the American Art Therapy Association, the Canadian Art Therapy Association and the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association.
