<font face="Times"><b><span style="font-family: Times">General Information</span></b></font><SPAN STYLE='FONT-FAMILY:"Times" ;FONT-SIZE:"10pt"'><span style="font-family: Times"><br style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times"></span></SPAN><font face="Times"><span style="font-family: Times">ACM Creativity and Cognition 2015 invites papers, posters, demonstrations workshops and Artworks investigating how interactive computing systems and sociotechnical processes affect creativity. We cherish creativity as a wonderful aspect of human experience, transformative and potentially transcendental. Creativity is the partner of inspiration, of moments when we seem to go beyond ourselves to reach new heights. Creativity is the font of innovation.</span></font> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0" class="MsoNormal">
<font face="Times"><span style="font-family: Times">Creativity and Cognition papers address the impact of computing on individual creative experiences, as well as social and collaborative contexts. In all cases, <i>we seek for the presentation of work to include forms of validation featuring data about people, in order to show how computing environments impact human creativity.</i> The data can take many forms, including qualitative, quantitative, and sensory. Creativity and Cognition 2015 will present papers addressing: (1) creativity support environments, (2) studies of technology, people, and creativity, and (3) creative works that utilize computing to engage, stimulate, and provoke human experience.</span></font> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0" class="MsoNormal">
<font face="Times"><span style="font-family: Times">We see research on the impact of computing on creativity not as a fledgling field, in which methodologies are unknown and uncertain, but rather as having reached a relatively mature state, in which various diverse methodologies have been developed and applied. Methodologies and theories, while perpetually under development, are already quite viable.</span></font> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0" class="MsoNormal">
<font face="Times"><span style="font-family: Times">As in the CHI conference, reviewers will be asked to focus on the significance of the submission’s contribution, originality and validity, the quality of the presentation, and the benefit others can gain from its results.</span></font> </p>
