In the coming hours, authors who answered the #CallForPapers from this year's @acm_creativitycognition will begin to hear back from the program chairs. So it's timely to post this reminder: the deadline to contribute to the #Demos and #Posters tracks (which I chair alongside the excellent Amna Liaqat of @hci ) has not yet passed.
But it is approaching rapidly.

*You have until April 8th* to send in an abstract for your @acm_creativitycognition poster (up to 3,000 words) and/or a description of your technical demonstration (up to 2,000 words).
Successful posters and demos will be presented at this year's conference in Chicago (June 24-26), and published in the ACM Digital Library.

Sponsored by @sigchi, C&C is wonderful, lively and deeply interdisciplinary.
I first encountered it in a century-old log cabin at the University of California, Berkeley, when I joined the 6th conference as a student of the founders, Linda Candy and Ernest Edmonds (supervisor of my still-unfinished PhD with the stalwart Andrew Johnston) and it fed my soul.

At #creativityandcognition I have taken lessons in sketching and co-creation from the deepest practitioners of those arts and been inspired by artworks and demo systems still sparking and shedding tape. I have drunk from the well of insights brought by new contributors and generous luminaries, presented in formal talks or traced in the air with a bread roll over lunch.

At #creativityandcognition I've also had the honour of sharing my own work and made lifelong collaborators and friends.
It's all pretty great if you like that sort of thing, so you should send us your work.

The @acm_creativitycognition '24 theme is Organic Creative Spaces:
• How human & computational creativity can beneficially impact our communities & cultures.
• How human experience impacts and is impacted by processes of creatively forming & solving problems, designing spaces, building new possibilities.
• How creativity, craft, & design can be elicited, supported, even augmented by (novel) methods, materials, and (digital) tools.

And so on. If that's your thing, then you must immediately visit:
https://cc.acm.org/2024/technical-demonstrations/ (demos)
and https://cc.acm.org/2024/posters/ (posters).
You're going to need an @ORCID_Org number, don't leave it until submission day ;)

With thanks to our @acm_creativitycognition General Chairs @clatulip and Brian Bailey, the rest of the org committee and student volunteers, and to my colleagues at #CSIRO's #Data61 – in particular our Science Director @aquigley who so ably supports all the #CHI conferences as chair-elect of the #SIGCHI conference steering committee (which sounds like a lot of thankyous but as you may be able to guess, it's not half of them).
