Proposals will be evaluated by review committee on the basis of their value in offering opportunities to conference attendees to learn more about the work done by others interested in the various themes and topics of the conference. ******************************************************************************************** C&C 2011 Workshops Chair: Chien-Sing Lee, Multimedia University, Malaysia. New developments often benefit from being presented, discussed, demonstrated, speculated upon, and generally questioned in more informal settings. The workshop portion of the conference provides just such a rich channel for the dynamic exchange of new ideas, creations, and discoveries. We invite proposals for full-day and half-day workshops focused on specific topics and questions related to the conference's broader themes. We invite proposals for full-day and halfday workshops focused on specific topics and questions related to the C&C 2011 conference's broader themes. We are particularly interested in topics likely to bridge the conference's many communities around the theme of Creativity and Technology. Proposals should be submitted in the conference publications format (up to four pages), and include: A 2-page extended abstract, the objectives and expected outcome of the workshop, the planned activities, the background of the organizer(s), the anticipated number of participants, and the means for soliciting and selecting participants. ******************************************************************************************** C&C 2011 Graduate Student Symposium Chair: Ellen Yi-Luen Do, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA The Graduate Student Symposium (GSS) provides a supportive setting for feedback on graduate students' current work and guidance on future directions. GSS participants will meet and discuss their work with each other and a panel of experienced researchers and practitioners in an informal and interactive setting. We welcome applications from graduate students in terminal degree programs, (i.e. doctoral programs in research fields and master programs in the arts) in any of the disciplines and approaches concerned with creativity and cognition. Each application should provide a short written paper (no more than two pages in normal ACM SIGCHI archival format) and a brief letter of support from the student's principal adviser. The paper should describe ongoing work and summarize the student's thesis, or highlight a particular aspect. Advisor’s letter of support should indicate that the work has reached the appropriate level of maturity for presentation in this venue. The letter of support should be submitted together with the paper on the conference submission site. Please note that GSC submission, unlike paper submission, is not anonymous. Participants will be selected based on their anticipated contributions to the breadth and depth of the intellectual discussions of the symposium. Selected students will be expected to give a short presentation of their work, followed by discussion with the panel and the other student participants. In addition, each student is encouraged to present a poster describing his or her work to the full conference and a 30-second overview of their work as part of the “madness” session. We anticipate that financial support will be available for graduate students to attend the GSS and C&C conference. **************************************************************************************************** We look forward to hearing from you!
