鈥婨llen Do, professor of computer science with the 聽and director of the ACME Lab,聽has a long history of doing community outreach and service for the 聽Conference, and this year is no exception. For C&C'21,聽held virtually from June 22-23, Do聽is the聽,聽graduate student symposium co-chair and publicity co-chair. She is also serving on the conference steering committee.
Remarkably, since 2009, Do has been on the organizing committee of every聽C&C conference, which since 1993 has brought together artists, scientists, designers, educators聽and researchers to more deeply understand how people engage individually and socially in creative processes and how computation and other technology can affect creative outcomes. Her service聽includes the聽C&C 2009 at Berkeley聽(); C&C 2011 in Atlanta (); C&C 2013 in Sydney (); C&C 2015 in Glasgow ();聽 C&C 2017 in Singapore (); and C&C 2019 ().
With 15 C&C papers published to-date, Do also carries the distinction of being the most . She presented her first paper in 2007 in Washington, DC聽to C&C with Mark Gross,聽director of the ATLAS Institute聽and professor of computer science, titled聽, and was later invited to publish a journal聽article, , for the Journal of Leonard, MIT press.
This year highlights how human and computational aspects of creativity can beneficially impact our communities and cultures, and how human experience impacts and is impacted by processes of creatively forming and solving problems, designing spaces, and building new possibilities.
