The Experimental Gameplay Workshop

The Experimental Gameplay Workshop
From the site:
The Experimental Gameplay Workshop is a forum for the demonstration and discussion of innovative game designs. It provides a place for designers to showcase challenging, unproven work, and discuss it with peers.
By explicitly acknowledging the existence of a community of experimental game designers, the workshop helps legitimize gameplay-oriented research and development.

A related festival is The Independent Games Festival at http://www.igf.com/

Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI) – Art, Science & Technology – mission
From the site:
Founded in 1988, Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI) is one of the few art & technology *members* organizations in the USA. Established primarily as a network for artists who either use or are inspired by science and technology, ASCI has become a magnet for some of the best examples of this type of contemporary art and for technologists wishing to collaborate. ASCI programs and services provide members with opportunities for proffessional growth, increased public visibility, and a supportive community. Since 1998, with its first ArtSci international symposium, ASCI has reached-out to the broad scientific community (from astro-physics to bio-chemistry) to involve its members in this and other ASCI events and programs.
