Here is the full call for papers for the live coding and collaboration
symposium. Please forward to anyone who might be interested, including
students who might like to take part in the doctoral consortium.


Live Coding and Collaboration symposium
Call for papers

University of Birmingham, on 25-26th September 2014.

http://livecodenetwork.org/collaboration/

In live coding, the innards of software are exposed and rewired
through live, direct, and exploratory use of custom made programming
languages. See http://livecodenetwork.org/ and http://toplap.org/ for
more background.

This symposium will bring new focus to collaborative aspects of live
coding, following last year's Dagstuhl seminar "Collaboration and
Learning through Live Coding".

Day one, on the 25th September, will be a doctoral consortium
dedicated to postgraduate students (PhD and masters level), to present
work and explore ideas at an early stage. This will be an opportunity
to receive feedback from peers, and experienced researchers and
practitioners in the field. We encourage a wide range of
participation, from those who are simply curious about what live
coding might mean for their research, to those who are exploring core
live coding research questions. Cultural, psychological, computer
science, social, technological, aesthetic, philosophical and other
perspectives are all welcome. The workshop will include hands-on
activities suitable for all levels, there is no requirement for prior
programming experience. Prospective participants will need to submit
an extended abstract of 1-2 pages (indicative length), outlining their
present research interests.

Day two, on the 26th September, will be a symposium dedicated to the
theme of Live Coding and Collaboration. We invite short papers (2-4
pages) and demonstrations (with 1-2 page description) which interweave
live coding with such themes as computer supported cooperative work,
social computing, network music and laptop ensembles, and social
craft. The day will consist of short papers and demonstrations, with
focus on discussion exploring emerging themes.

All submissions will undergo single-blind peer review. All page sizes
are indicative length only. Please use a font no smaller than 11pt,
and submit in PDF format.

All papers and abstracts should be submitted via Easychair, at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lcrns3

We will release further information shortly, including registration details.

Please direct all questions to Alex McLean: a.mclean_at_leeds.ac.uk
