Information Technologies have made possible many
important changes in the field

emerge. This wave of change has had
particularly significant consequences in the
field of the Performing Arts, where
a vast array of possibilities for digital content fruition continues to reveal
itself, constantly opening the doors to new and as-yet-unexplored synergies.
Many technological developments concerning
digital libraries, media entertainment

and cultivated by the public.
The ECLAP 2012 conference is open to researchers, professionals, industries,
institutions, technicians, practitioners in the area of performing arts and
information technologies, media entertainment, technology enhanced learning,
intelligent media systems, acoustic systems,
cultural heritage, and many others.
