CREATE 2007: Creative Inventions, Innovations and
Everyday Designs in
HCI
13-14 June 2007
British Computer Society, Davidson Building, Covent
Garden, London
===============================================
CREATE is a 2-day conference about creating innovative
interactions,
whether digital consumer products, interactive
services or interaction
paradigms. A conference where the emphasis is not on
presenting
technology or evaluation, but to share the wealth of
creative ideas we
have developed to resolve problems, to create new
capabilities, or new
functions. A conference where the aim is to spawn
further creative
designs that can make a difference to people. In
keeping with this
theme, we invite people to bring:
- Their experiences – designs, both successes and
failures, that have
pushed the boundaries of interaction
- Their approaches – principles and methods that have
delivered new,
people-centred ideas and products.
CREATE will present cases of innovative interactions
and
visualisations, and discussions of how we innovate. It
will show the
role of user-centred design in the innovation process,
in a workshop
format allowing us to debate the ways in which new
designs come about
and how novel but usable interactions can be
developed.
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS:
1. Jarnail Chudge, Jarnail Chudge, UX Lead, Microsoft

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
We are interested in descriptions of new processes and
methods,
innovative designs, inventive creations, and even
designs that did not
work. Of particular interest will be their design
rationales - why
certain features were designed or created in the way
they were. While
completed evaluations of these ideas would be nice,
they are not
required as part of the submitted papers. At CREATE,
we are keenly
interested in the spawning of new ideas that can
emerge from a
discussion of ideas. Thus, we invite cases studies of
innovative design
– including the web, mobile and hand held, consumer
electronics - from
the commercial, public, government and research
sectors.
Outline the problems, the capabilities, or new
functions that were
being addressed, and then describe the solutions you
or your team
created to resolve it. IMPORTANT: Include photos,
screen shots, or
sketches, and tell us how and why it did or did not
work. We also
welcome theoretical and research perspectives on how
we innovate.
Initial abstract submissions should be no more than 2
pages long or 500
words. If your abstract includes images, please send
