ICCC’24: The 15th International Conference on Computational Creativity
June 17-21, 2024
Jönköping, Sweden

Call for Workshop and Tutorial Proposals
Submission deadline: January 7

*Overview*

The 15th International Conference on Computational Creativity is soliciting
proposals for workshops and tutorials to be held in association with the
main ICCC conference. We welcome proposals for half-day, full-day and
one-and-a-half-day workshops and tutorials on any aspect of computational
creativity research whose focus area complements the topics discussed in
the main conference.

Workshops offer a great opportunity to exchange ideas, and a chance to
drive broader adoption of your systems and methods. We welcome a diversity
of formats, from academic workshops (with a process of peer review for
submitted papers, managed by the workshop organisers) to traditional
tutorials, as well as hands-on and practical workshops. Please feel free to
contact the organisers to discuss the possibilities further.

Topics can range from anything between theoretical or computational aspects
of computational creativity, social and ethical implications, and/or
focused artistic showcases. In the past, workshops at ICCC have covered a
wide variety of focused areas and this is part of the strength of a
workshop series. We will prioritise workshops that have a clear focus area,
rather than a more general application area. This is to create a workshop
program that is complementary to the conference.

Please notice that all workshops will be academically self-contained: they
should have their own organising committee and conduct their own peer
review managed entirely by the workshop organisers. All peer-reviewed full
papers of workshops accepted at ICCC’24 will be jointly published as a
separate part of the conference proceedings or as part of CEUR-WS workshop
proceedings.

The venue has several rooms appropriate for a range of different types of
workshops: including classic lecture rooms and showcase rooms with up to 8
projectors perfect for more artistically directed workshops/tutorials.


*Important dates*

   - Workshop proposal submissions due: January 7, 2024
   - Notification of workshop acceptance: January 14, 2024

In case of excellent early bird submissions, earlier acceptance may be
possible at the chairs’ discretion, to allow workshops a longer lead time.

All workshop organisers should manage their own abstract/paper submission,
invite a program committee and handle a peer-reviewing process with
appropriate timelines. For the workshops that accept submissions for
publications we recommend adhering to the following

   - Workshop call for papers announcement and publicity: January 24, 2024
   - Workshop paper submission deadline: April  10, 2024
   - Workshop author notification: April 30, 2024
   - Camera-ready submission: June 1st, 2024 - STRICT
   - Workshop days: between June 17-18, 2024
   (co-located with ICCC 2024)


The organisers must develop their own workshop/tutorial web page that will
be located on the ACC server. The web page must follow the visual identity
of ICCC. The ICCC 2024 webmasters will provide templates to facilitate this
process.
