Call for Videos

ROB|ARCH 2018 CALL FOR VIDEOS: RESULTS

 

For this Rob’Arch’s Call for Videos, we have received nearly 80 submissions with a total length of 3:52h, i.e. longer than the Lord of the Rings movie! Out of those videos, we have selected 47 videos to be displayed at Rob|Arch 2018 and online, resulting in a 60% acceptance rate.

The list of ACCEPTED submissions can be found below. We are still sorting out some missing documents etc., so the list may slightly grow over the course of the week. If you have got questions or would like feedback, please get in touch with johannes@robotsinarchitecture.org. Note that the affiliations below may have been shortened. The full affiliations as provided by the authors are of course part of the video description.

 

We greatly appreciate your many, great videos!

CALL FOR VIDEOS

 

Every two years, as part of the Rob|Arch conference on robotic fabrication in architecture, art, and design, we send out a Call for Videos and publish the best submissions on the Robots in Architecture Vimeo channel. The videos of the past years were accessed more than 1.3 million times, making the Vimeo channel a central hub for anyone investigating new and exciting robotic applications.

 

As part of this year’s Rob|Arch we are again asking architects, designers, researchers, artists and anyone else working with robots in a creative way to submit their videos as part of the Rob|Arch 2018 Call for Videos.

 

A jury will view all videos and select the best submissions. The accepted videos will be properly referenced at all times and displayed without any advertisements/monetization. One initial still image will be added for each video, stating the title, author, and a Rob|Arch 2018 logo. The videos will also be publicly shown to an expert-audience at the Rob|Arch 2018 conference in Zurich. We invite everyone to submit a video, including authors of Rob|Arch 2018 papers who want to showcase their projects.

 

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: August 14th (EXTENDED DEADLINE!)

 

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

 

All submissions should include the video file, the signed release form and a text file including all following information listed below in ONE .zip folder named robarch2018_video_[VIDEO_NAME].
