Call for outstanding Media Architecture<\/h2>\nMedia Architecture Award<\/strong>: We are pleased to announce the first call of the Media Architecture Biennale awards for outstanding projects at the intersection of architecture, media and interaction design. Projects can be submitted for consideration for the award by the project team itself or it can be nominated by outsiders. Please refer to the details below.\n\nMedia Architecture Biennale Exhibition<\/strong>: Please submit your project for consideration for the exhibition by following the guidelines below. The submission form for the exhibition and the award is the same. Please refer to the details below.\n\nDownload Submission Form<\/a>\n\nAward and Exhibition categories:<\/strong>\n\nYou may submit your project in one or two of the following categories:\n\nAnimated Architecture<\/em>\nProjects demonstrating creative media facades solutions. Facades of buildings are increasingly animated by integrated light sources. Designers are focusing more and more on the perception of the building. The flexibility of content is rather limited due to resolution, colour and shape of the pixels. In most cases the pixels are highly customised and present a creative challenge to the project.\n\nMoney Architecture<\/em>\nProjects incorporating buildings that are closely related to business, banks, shopping centres, entertainment and gambling. Lighting on building surfaces might be designed to attract people and encourage spending, or to represent the power of the institution, as in the case of banks for example.\n\nParticipatory Architecture<\/em>\nProjects mostly developed by media designers that allow passers-by to interact with and take control of the content on the surface. Many projects are non-permanent and built on a pre-existing architectural structure. New media formats that take advantage of mobile apps and social media are being developed.\n\nSpatial Media Art<\/em>\nProjects produced in an artistic context at the intersection of architecture and media art. Mostly non-permanent movable installations with an innovative form of spatial interaction and\/or perception of space.\n\nFuture Trends and Prototypes<\/em>\nThis sections covers special solutions like three-dimensional displays, kinetic facades, OLEDs or even robotic elements that could shed light on what future media architectures might look like.\n\nWhat is considered Media Architecture?<\/strong>\n\nPlease have a look at the MAB10 catalog for a detailed definition of \u201cMedia Architecture\u201d and numerous \u201cMedia Architecture\u201d examples. http:\/\/issuu.com\/jeff.lee\/docs\/katalog_mab2010\/3<\/a>\n\nPlease note that the area of Media Architecture is dynamically evolving and therefore not easy to define. Media Architecture is made up by the people who are active in the field and by the innovative and ground-breaking projects they are producing.\n\nSo, finally, it is also up to you and other participants to establish the directions in which we are heading. It could be that your project is opening up new perspectives and defining new benchmarks.\n\nWho may submit?<\/strong>\n\nEveryone who has played a substantial role in the submitted project, including:\n
