Panel Discussions and Presenters: In keeping with this year’s theme, we ask that panels attempt to showcase a range of experience in the field; graduate students, novice presenters, experienced scholars and community members are encouraged to apply. Panel coordinators should submit a 200-word rationale for the panel as whole. For each contributor, please submit a short bio and contact information. Panel discussions might include the ethics and/or the financial impact of 3d Printing (eg the recent “print your own gun” debate), the implications of cloud computing and privacy or the implementation of augmented reality into our everyday lives. While on campus presentations are encouraged, Skype presentations are allowed.

Workshop Proposals: We seek workshop ideas that focus on hands-on demonstrations of new technology. Topics might include: Arduino processors, introduction to Adobe Photoshop or alternatives, video editing and sharing, physical computing, integrating sensors, 3d printing, processing or bio-technology. Coordinators should submit a 200-word rationale for the workshop (including some discussion of why the topic lends itself to a workshop format), a short bio, and contact information. For each workshop participant, please submit a title, short bio, and contact information. Workshops are intended to encourage discussion; contributors should plan on a series of brief, informal presentations.
