If anyone is inclined to participate, here is a information announcement from
another list that might be of interested to European members (or not!). It
seems that this org wants submitted papers from all who would participate, as
its invitation only.

<<ENCODING ALTRUISM: THE ART AND SCIENCE OF INTERSTELLAR MESSAGE COMPOSITION

On March 23-24, 2003, the second in a series of international workshops on
interstellar message design will be held in Paris. The workshop will focus
on two broad themes: first, the interface of art, science, and technology in
interstellar message design; and second, how to communicate concepts of
altruism in interstellar messages. Papers addressing other topics related
to interstellar message construction will be considered on a space available
basis. For detailed information, see
<http://publish.seti.org/art_science/2003>. Participation is by invitation
only. Each potential participant should send a 200-word abstract of his/her
proposed paper and either a c.v./resume or a URL describing professional
background to <altruism@seti.org> no later than December 1, 2002. The
workshop is sponsored by The SETI Institute; Leonardo/OLATS (Leonardo
Observatory for the Arts and TechnoSciences); The John Templeton Foundation;
The International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology; and The
International Academy of Astronautics Permanent SETI Study Group.>>
