Call For Work-In-Progress Showcase

We welcome the submission of proposals for demonstrations of work in progress accompanied by an extended abstract. This category is especially suitable for submissions from young professionals, students, and first-time NIME attendees.

PROPOSALS (COMPILED IN A SINGLE PDF) SHOULD INCLUDE:

• Abstract with demo description and technical introduction (300-500 words)
• Author bio(s) (200 words max)
• A link to audio-visual documentation showcasing the technology and/or activity to be demonstrated. The documentation link containing media materials should use an unrestricted streaming service such as Vimeo, YouTube or Bilibili.

Submission Guideline:

NIME uses two steps for a submission: Create your submission on PubPub, our multimedia platform for publication and then submit it through CMT, our conference management system. To submit a showcase to NIME 2021, follow these steps (an illustrated guide to this process is forthcoming):

1. Create an account on PubPub if you do not have one already.
2. Create a Pub — Click the "Create Showcase Submission" button on the PubPub Submissions page. This will be your submitted showcase and will eventually be published if accepted by the review process. Save the URL for future reference.
3. Follow this template to create your submission. The easiest way to follow the template is to copy-paste it into your own Pub, where it will be available for quick reference. Of course, you will ultimately delete or replace everything from the template with your own content.
4. Download your Pub as a PDF. Find the "Download" button to the right of the title near the top of your Pub.
5. Upload the PDF to the CMT, NIME2021's conference management system.

Presentation Format:

If the submission is accepted, authors will be asked to provide a webpage/website to showcase their work. All materials will be publicly available online. Those who can visit Shanghai will have the opportunity to present their work in extra panel sessions and engage with the local NIME community.
