___________________ ANNOUNCING __________________________

L A N G U A G E S OF DESIGN
________________________________________________________
the international journal of formalisms for

WORD, IMAGE, & SOUND
________________________________________________________

Languages of design is an international, interdisciplinary journal
devoted to research in formal languages and their use for the synthesis
of words, images, and sounds. Languages of design welcomes articles
employing linguistic techniques to generate literary and non-literary
texts, music, and visual works including art, dance, theater,
architecture and all types of design.

This multidisciplinary focus is reflected by the journal's editorial board,
which includes literary theorists, music theorists and composers,
researchers in artificial intelligence, artists and art critics. Formal
design theory, generative grammars, shape grammars, and computational
musicology are central to the subjects covered by the journal. More
general subject areas, such as formal languages, finite state automata,
grammatical inference, pattern recognition, cellular automata, semantic
networks, connectionism, and syntactical analysis are discussed in the
context of their application to productive systems. Specific analytic perspectiv
es, such as syntactics, semiotics, deconstruction,
hermeneutics, stylistics, narratology, philology, morphology, prosody,
harmony theory, formal musicology, and performance analysis will be
presented.

These subjects will be presented in terms of their impact and influence
on a theoretical foundation for productive systems. Research results from
visual, audio and textual analyses that may have an impact on the arts are
also invited. Of particular interest is research utilizing computational
methods to verify theoretical formal analysis. Articles criticizing the
assumptions and results of this work are also welcome.
