Call for Papers
 
International Conference on Culture and Computing (Culture and Computing 
2015)
 
Date: October 17-19, 2015
Venue: The Clock Tower Centennial Hall, Kyoto University, Japan
http://www.ai.soc.i.kyoto-u.ac.jp/culture2015/
 
Culture and Computing is a new research area which aims to overcome 
different cultural issues in international communities using information and 
communication technologies (ICT). There are various research directions in 
the relations between culture and computing: to archive cultural heritages 
via ICT (cf. digital archives), to empower humanities researches via ICT 
(cf. digital humanities), to create art and expressions via ICT (cf. media 
art), to realize a culturally situated agent (cf. cultural agent), to 
support multi-language, multi-cultural societies via ICT (cf. intercultural 
collaboration), and to understand new cultures born in the Internet and Web 
(cf. net culture).

The International Conference on Culture and Computing provides an 
opportunity to share research issues and discuss the future of culture and 
computing, which was established in Kyoto, the cultural heart of Japan in 
2010, and has been held once every two years in Kyoto, Japan since 2011. The 
conference is also held in even years when there is a voluntary host city 
(e.g., Culture and Computing 2012 in Hangzhou, China). 
 
Culture and Computing 2015 will also be organized with an exhibition on the 
integration of state of the art cultural computing technologies and Japanese 
traditional culture, along with organized sessions, poster sessions and 
demonstrations. There will be a performance of Kyogen (a form of traditional 
Japanese comic theater) in social events. Especially we are also proud to 
announce the keynote talk and the invited talk in Culture and Computing 2015 
as shown below.

- Keynote Talk: Music cultures opened up by music technologies (Dr. Masataka 
Goto, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology 
(AIST), Japan)

- Invited Talk: Antoni Gaudí and his role in forming a traditional craft - 
digital culture continuum (Professor Mark Burry, Faculty of Architecture, 
Building and Planning, University of Melbourne, Australia)

We invite submission to a wide range of venues including papers, posters, 
and demos. Submissions are solicited on any aspect on the intersection of 
culture and computing, but are expected to be suitable for a 
multidisciplinary audience. In Culture and Computing 2015, we especially 
encourage submissions on three topics: culture and computing for Tokyo 
Olympics, open data for culture and computing, and culture in social 
network. Other examples of suitable submission topics include:
- Archiving cultural heritages
- Information environments for humanity studies
- Art and design by information technologies
- Digital storytelling
- Intercultural communication and collaboration
- Culturally situated agents and simulations
- Game and culture
- Analysis of new culture in the Internet and Web
- Culture and brain science
- VR (virtual reality) application for culture
- Digital libraries for cultural materials
- Sound archiving of intangible cultural properties
- Digital humanities
- Culture based media art & music

* Paper Submission

There are three types of submissions: full papers (main track and organized 
sessions), posters and demos. For oral presentation, a full paper with the 
length of 6-8 pages should be submitted. For poster presentation, a poster 
paper with a limit of two pages should be submitted. For demonstration, an 
extended summary of the demo system should be submitted with a limit of two 
pages. All submissions will be reviewed by three distinguished researchers 
in the area of culture and computing. Accepted papers/posters/demos will 
appear in the conference proceedings published by Conference Publishing 
Services of IEEE Computer Society and will be included in the IEEE Computer 
Society Digital Library (CSDL).

Submissions should be conducted with an abstract (150 words) via EasyChair
