The Electronic Visualisation in the Arts (EVA) 2026 international conference covers a wide range of creative digital applications.
Synopsis
The Electronic Visualisation in the Arts (EVA) conferences have always created a space for people using, or interested in, the new digital technologies in the arts to share their experiences and network in a friendly, collaborative atmosphere.
EVA London’s focus is on the development and application of visualisation technologies to various domains, including art, music, dance, theatre and heritage.
For 2026, our 36th year, the annual conference will again be held in mid-July. Conference participation can be online or in-person as all scheduled presentations are in hybrid mode to broaden our worldwide involvement among artists, academics and researchers.
EVA London 2026 will feature some 80 presentations and demos and workshops from this wider community of international authors. There will also be some prestigious Keynote Speakers and exciting free evening events. Our Research Workshop encourages early career artists and academics from around the world to write a paper and present their ideas.
Delivered in hybrid mode, with the BCS’ cutting edge technology, we will stream live and mix in-person and online speakers, sharing similar contacts and interests. Those unable to come to London themselves, will be able to interact, question and discuss ideas with other attendees, both in London and around the World.
N.B. If registering to attend ‘In Person’, please remember to also book any evening events you wish to attend, at the same time, as places may be limited at some of these extra events.
