INTRODUCTION
 
The Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment is a
cross-disciplinary conference that brings together researchers from
artificial intelligence, cognitive science, media studies, drama, HCI,
psychology, interactive media, cultural studies, graphics, audio, as
well as researchers from other disciplines working on new game specific
technologies or providing critical analysis of games and interactive
environments.
 
In an epoch marked by convergence, cross-platform media and the rise of
social software/ networks, how are the digital industries - most
especially gaming - being transformed? What types of new genres and
modes of interactivity are evolving? And how are these social
technologies informed by cultural context? The 2007 Interactive
Entertainment conference considers the difference between convergence as
rhetoric and practice, imaginary and reality.
 
The conference will accept innovative submission types that present new
scientific ideas, improvements to existing techniques or provide new
ways of examining, designing and using computer games. All full paper
and short paper submissions will be peer-reviewed by an international
program committee. 
 
Authors of selected IE2007 papers will be invited to revise and expand
their submission for submission to a special issue of the Journal of
Game development. These expanded versions would be subject to the
journal's existing review process.
