30th June to 2nd July 2010

Edinburgh Napier University, UK 

After three very successful years at the BCS offices in London’s Covent Garden, the annual CREATE conference is moving north to Edinburgh Napier University, inspiring this year’s broad theme of ‘transitions’. The move to the university’s city centre venue will allow the conference to expand and also provides an opportunity to launch a new student design competition. Our past conferences have been well received for providing a friendly and informal setting where networking, discussion and practical work are high on the agenda.

The Create conference centres on interaction design, a young discipline with roots in human-computer interaction, ergonomics, product and graphic design, multi-media and art. An interaction designer is a difficult person to pigeon hole and can be found in mobile phone companies, consumer product manufacturers, design consultancies, as a single practitioner, or within academic computing and design departments.

Participate

As well as presentation of academic research and student work, the conference will provide real learning opportunities through hands-on workshops, case studies and demonstrations. We also welcome theoretical and research perspectives on the process of design innovation and approaches to creativity in HCI; how human factors can be integrated within a creative design process, methods that encourage creativity in interaction design, and the challenges of working in multi-disciplinary teams. 

Create10 Design Exhibition :: Student Design Competition

The conference organizers are particularly pleased that the winning students’ entries will be on public show at Inspace, a fantastic new-media exhibition space. This competition is open to students from a wide range of disciplines. 

Digital Creativity Journal

We have also agreed with the journal Digital Creativity that successful papers and student submissions will be invited to submit their work for potential publication. Therefore, we welcome high quality ponderings, proposals, prototypes and presentations from members of the interaction design community who want to share their creativity with others.

The conference takes place at Merchiston Campus, Edinburgh Napier University, 10 Colinton Road, Edinburgh EH10 5DT.

The Create10 Design Exhibition takes place at Inspace, 1 Crighton Street, Edinburgh, United Kingdom, EH8 9AB. Open to the public from June 30th to July 9th

CREATE is jointly organised by the Human-Computer Interaction Specialist Group of the Institute of Ergonomics & Human Factors, BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT's Interaction Specialist Group and Edinburgh Napier University’s Centre for Interaction Design.
