Forthcoming Events 2008

17-19 September 2008 · 5th International Joint Workshop in Computational Creativity IJWCC'08
The aim of the workshop is to facilitate exchange of ideas on the topic of computational creativity. It will bring together people from AI, Cognitive Science and related areas such as Psychology, Philosophy and the Arts who research questions related to the notion of creativity with respect to computers. The workshop will address issues such as how we assess creativity in computers, how computers can model creative thought, how computers can be used to enhance human creativity, and how we can implement creative software systems. The workshop will include papers on the many and various aspects of computational creativity, and will showcase the applications of computational creativity to the sciences, creative industries and arts. The workshop will provide a forum for identifying trends and opportunities for research on creativity and promising practices concerning the development of creative systems. In addition, there will be a "show and tell" session, which will be devoted to demonstrations of systems exhibiting behaviour which would be deemed creative in humans.

23-25 June 2008 · Third International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition DCC'08 or DCC08
Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA. This biennial conference series provides an international forum for the presentation and discussion of state-of-the-art and cutting-edge design research with a focus on artificial intelligence, cognitive science and computational theories in design. The conference proceedings will form a continuing archive of design computing and cognition research. The conference will be preceded by a series of half-day workshops on specialist topics in design computing and cognition. [Note: It'd be interesting to propose a workshop on computational creativity and design in this conference]

March 26-28, 2008 · AAAI Spring Symposium Creative Intelligent Systems
Stanford University. The purpose of this symposium is to explore the synergies between creative cognition and intelligent systems in a cross-disciplinary setting that fosters cooperation both in designing creative systems and in creatively designing systems.

Forthcoming Events 2007

14 November 2007. Creativity, Cognition and Computers: the meeting.
John Gero, Pablo Gervás, Rafael Pérez y Pérez, Ricardo Sosa, Paula Montoya and Christian Lemaitre meet to discuss about creativity, cognition and computers at the UAM and UNAM in México City (details to be published).

8-11 November 2007 · AAAI 2007 Fall Symposium on Intelligent Narrative Technologies
"Our goal is to bring together a multidisciplinary group of researchers interested in discussing the fundamental issues in representing, presenting, adapting, and reasoning about narrative in digital media."

8-9 October 2007 · 2nd IFIP Working Conference on Computer Aided Innovation
"New information technology and methods are being increasingly used for more accurately foretelling the next steps in the technological evolution and in the development of new products."

17-19 June 2007 · 4th International Joint Workshop on Computational Creativity
"This joint series results from two previous streams of events that have, since 1997, solidified and added rigour to the computational treatment of creative processes. These events were symposia and workshops associated with AISB'99, AISB'00, ICCBR'01, AISB'01, ECAI'02, AISB'02, IJCAI'03, AISB'03 and LREC'04."
