To register to a tutorial, please select it when you will be registering for the main conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both tutorials will take place at UPMC on June 27. The Prosecco<\/em> tutorial will take place in the morning and the Engagement-reflection model<\/em> tutorial will take place in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

The PROSECCO network is offering 11\u00a0scholarship grants to defray the cost of attending the PROSECCO tutorial. \u00a0Instructions on how to apply can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Deadline for applications is 19 May, midnight, Paris time<\/p>\n

Tutorial #1: The Engagement-Reflection Model<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/span>
\n

The Engagement-Reflection Model (ER-Model) has been developed to study the creative process using computers. Originally, it was implemented in MEXICA, an agent that develops plots about the ancient inhabitants of what today is M\u00e9xico City. However, some variations of the model have been employed to develop agents in areas like interior-design, visual composition, developmental agents, geometry, and so on.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this meeting is to introduce the participants into the core ideas behind the ER-Model, contrast such a model with traditional approaches, reflect on the potentialities and limitations of this approach, and then have fun with some of our prototypes: our plot-generator agent known as MEXICA-libre and our visual-composer agent called Tlahcuilo-VC. We expect a very dynamic tutorial with an intensive and productive exchange of ideas between participants.<\/p>\n

Participants<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We hope to gather together an interdisciplinary group of at least 10 participants. Although it would be useful to have some basic knowledge on cognitive science and some experience in programming, these are not essential requirements. Please, bring your own computer.<\/p>\n

If you are interested contact:<\/p>\n

Responsible: Dr. Rafael P\u00e9rez y P\u00e9rez<\/a><\/p>\n

Assistant: Iv\u00e1n Guerrero<\/p>\n

Date<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The tutorial will take place in the afternoon of Monday the 27th of June. Details coming soon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Tutorial #2:\u00a0PROSECCO Tutorial about Computational Creativity<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/span>
The PROSECCO network will organise a tutorial session on Computational Creativity in the morning of June 27th.<\/p>\n

A flavour of Computational Creativity (CC) research will be provided by introductory lectures from Geraint Wiggins (http:\/\/www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk\/people\/view\/4932<\/a>), Hannu Toivonen (http:\/\/www.cs.helsinki.fi\/u\/htoivone\/<\/a>) and\u00a0Graeme Ritchie (<\/span>http:\/\/homepages.abdn.ac.uk\/g.ritchie\/pages\/<\/span><\/a>). The tutorial is open to all, and should contain something for everyone. However, researchers wanting to start exploring the field, or students starting a research program in a CC related matter, may find it especially useful.<\/span><\/p>\n
