The call for ARTWORKS, MUSIC, PERFORMANCES and INSTALLATIONS is now closed.
General Information
We are calling for proposals for artworks, music, performances and installations to be presented in conjunction with the conference.
We are seeking a wide variety of artworks related to (but not limited to) the conference theme of `Computers | Arts | Data’. The exhibition of these works will be juried and presentation of works will be integrated into the conference program, in either a concert format, art exhibition or co-located installation, depending on available resources and locations.
Formal proposals should be 2 pages in SIGCHI format (see ‘Submission’), and should include the elements listed below. The 2-page text of these submissions will be published in the conference proceedings, but appendices (eg. staging diagrams, scores, large photos) should be included as extra pages in the same pdf, and these extra pages need not follow SIGCHI format. For the proceedings the extra pages will not be published, only the formal 2-page submission will be published. Accepted submissions will need to be revised based on reviews and according to guidelines for camera-ready publication to be sent upon notification of acceptance.

• Title of work.

Submission Details
Submissions [Length / Format]
Use the two-column ACM SIGCHI format. Templates are available for Latex and Word. You must submit your workshop proposals as a 2 page PDF. Please note that because of the nature of an artwork submission we do not require anonymity.
Artwork proposals will be submitted through he Creativity and Cognition Precision Conference web site.. The total size of all submitted materials, including video, should not exceed 100 Mb. The CHI and UISTguides to producing good video figures are useful.
Exhibition Space
Our intention for the conference is to hold the art exhibition in a number of locations. Here is a preview of one of the spaces that we intend to use. It’s an original gymnasium that sits on top of an iconic 1960s building in Glasgow. This will be adapted to host art works. As a city, Glasgow has a tradition of using alternative “pop up” spaces.
