The time-honored annual conferences have been organized by the Society for Art and Science since 2000, which aims to promote the research topics combining science and art in computer graphics and related fields as well as to advance the development of interactive media art.

In 2002 the first international conference NICOGRAPH International

The international conference mainly aims to provide good opportunities for young researchers and students to present their works in English and exchange ideas with young colleagues from countries all over the world. Through this activity, the organizing committee and supporting members hope to raise the next generation leaders in the interdisciplinary field combining academy, art and industry.
