Call for Papers: Progress in Colour Studies 2022

Progress in Colour Studies 2022 (previously, PICS 2020). Submit your abstracts now!

 

This is the Call for Papers for the Progress in Colour Studies 2022 Conference (PICS 2022),
(previously PICS 2020, postponed due to Covid-19), which will take place at Tallinn University, Tallinn, Estonia on 7-10 September 2022.

The aim of the PICS 2022 is to provide a forum for discussion of recent and ongoing research and bring scholars from different disciplines together. Authors are encouraged to consider their own specialist colour expertise in the broader context of colour at the intersection of many disciplines.

We therefore welcome proposals for papers on colour studies from any area of interest, including but not limited to the following topics:

  • Linguistics, psycholinguistics, and colour in languages

  • Colour in literature and poetry

  • Translation of colour

  • Vision, perception, cognition, memory

  • Design, fashion

  • Architecture, art, history, heritage, culture

  • Imaging, computation, analysis, modelling

  • Illumination, optics, photography, technology

  • Conservation, chemistry, materials, surfaces

Along with the keynote lectures, the conference will host oral and poster presentations. Abstract submission deadline is 20 March 2022. If you want to make modifications or submit a new abstract, follow the submission guidelines on the conference website https://www.tlu.ee/pics2022 or contact pics2022@tlu.ee.

We look forward to welcoming you to PICS 2022!
