Université Côte d'Azur
Université Côte d'Azur now includes 17 major academic establishments around the historic university core, to create one of France's top 10 research-intensive universities. Université Côte d'Azur is at the heart of an exceptionally beautiful and contrasting territory, between sea and mountain. The city of Cannes, where WAC 2022 will take place, is world-famous for its international film festival, but also for MIDEM, the leading international event for the global music community. WAC 2022 will take place both at the Miramar Palace on the Croisette, and in the brand new Georges Melies university campus, offering high-end facilities for the audiovisual creation chain, from production to broadcasting, university training and collaboration spaces for professionals.
For this conference, we have brought together the strengths of multiple laboratories : I3S and INRIA (computer science, signal processing, networks...) and CTEL (linking artistic theory and practice with music, photography, film, dance, video games and digital arts), and two Graduate Schools : DS4H (Digital Systems For Humans) and Arts and Humanities CREATES (Creativity, Transformation, Emergences).
Cannes
Well communicated with direct flights from/to the European capitals and international destinations, Cannes is a very popular destination for tourists and professionals, especially in summer.
Don't forget your bathing suit and sunglasses!
