UbiComp 2006 Open Session

UbiComp 2006 will have an open session, chaired by Lars Erik Holmquist and Barry Brown and Gregory Abowd.

The UbiComp Open Session welcomes controversial ideas, novel prototypes, failed but valuable user studies, bold experiments, and anything else that can give a fresh perspective on ubiquitous computing, ambient intelligence, information appliances, smart artefacts and mobile applications.

The UbiComp Open Session is:

• Open format: everything can be submitted, everything will be considered
• Open reviewing: reviews and discussions will take place publicly on-line and non-anonymously
• Open presentations: traditional paper presentations are fully acceptable, but if you want to build a system from scratch, perform a stand-up comedy routine, run a live demo, organize an audience participation event, or anything else, feel free!
• Open for business: come and join us at UbiComp 2006!
