The DAW INTERNATIONAL's is concerned in general with the bridge between the arts and sciences in cultural context with the application of digital technology in specific. Consisting of symposia, workshops and cultural events, the DAW program offers insight into current research and innovations in art and technology as well as illustrating resulting synergies, making artists aware of impulses in technology and scientists aware of the possibilities of application of technology in the arts. Based at the Computer Systems Institute at the ETH Zurich, DAW was founded in 2005 by Prof. Jürg Gutknecht, Arthur Clay, and Dr. Stefan Müller Arisona to drive interdisciplinary initiatives involving innovations in computer science.
