EAI ArtsIT 2025 invites submissions for its Posters and Demos Track, welcoming innovative and thought-provoking contributions across all areas related to art, immersive technologies, interactivity, and creative collaboration.

This track is especially intended to provide PhD students and early-stage researchers with a valuable platform to present their ideas and ongoing research, receive constructive feedback from an international audience, and foster engaging discussions with peers and experts in the field. Poster and demo presentations offer a space to share work-in-progress, preliminary results, or innovative concepts that are not yet ready for full paper submission but have strong potential for future development and publication.

Authors of accepted submissions will be required to:

• Submit a PDF version of their poster or demo overview by the Submission deadline.

• Bring a printed copy of the poster or prepare a live/demo-ready version for onsite presentation during the dedicated session at the conference venue.

EAI ArtsIT 2025 is planned as a fully onsite event in Dubai, and at least one author of each accepted poster or demo must register and attend the conference to present their work in person.
