The last day (11 September) will be mostly devoted to the Community Meeting, where important announcements will be made and participants will have the context to jointly discuss the future of the conference and of the field. We encourage all the participants in ICCC’20 to have their say in this important community building event and bring their concerns and proposals.
The program for this day also has a space for the General Assembly of the Association for Computational Creativity, which aims to promote the scientific study of human and machine creativity using computational methods, and also to organise ICCC while ensuring the means to yearly hold it.
