Subject: A proposal

Hi!

I hope all is well with you!

Very shortly, a proposal: what do you think about organizing one or more sessions on Technology of Emotion at the next IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Conference in San Diego, as i told you during your visit in Genova?

If yes, do you think you can solicit/collect at least 3-5 contributes (included yours) and chair one of the sessions we can build up on these topics?

(I was asked by the general chairman of 1998 IEEE SMC to proceed, so I thought it would be an interesting occasion to continue there the work started at the Kansei workshop ...).

My best wishes of merry Christmas and a happy new year.

I look forward to meet you in the near future!

Antonio

Hello Antonio,

How is everything is Genova? How about the presentation on the 27th/Nov - did people liked it? We are eager to visit the installation, and as soon as possible, we will definetly do it!

YEAH, GREAT! We want very much to do it! Thanks for the invitation. You said it should take place in September or October/98 - is it right?

> If yes, do you think you can solicit/collect at least 3-5 contributes (included yours) and chair one of the sessions we can build up on these topics?

Yes. Sure. We can make a session on computer music and kansei/expressivity, control, gestures, perception, etc... We can try to arrange 5 contributes in the form of papers or tutorials, since we have already contacted many people (since the Kansei workshop) and they said they are interested in the discussion. It would be a very nice opportunity to do it.

I would like to ask you some questions about the Congress format:

- How should it be arranged? Will you be the general chair on this subject, right?

- The Kansei "approach" will be divided in different sessions, right? (As it was in the Kansei workshop?) Do you already have an idea of these topics? Will they follow the Kansei workshop distribution?

- Which is the contributions format: invited papers? tutorials? lectures? round tables? workshops? This is not clear to me now.

> (I was asked by the general chairman of 1998 IEEE SMC to proceed, so I thought it would be an interesting occasion to continue there the work started at the Kansei workshop ...).

I totally agree. And I do believe this is an interesting topic for the SMC congress.

Thanks again for your invitation.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

My idea is to propose to the general chairman one or more sessions on kansei, which might be included in the program of the SMC conference in one of the parallel tracks.

I'd need from you for the first days of january a proposal of session: title, chairman, title authors and abstracts of 3-5 papers. Then we submit the proposal to Frank DiCesare, general chairman.

I'm out of town until 23dec. Best regards!

Antonio
