Welcome to the archive for the Create 2009 conference
CREATE 2009 was a 2-day conference about creating innovative interactions, whether digital consumer products, interactive services or interaction paradigms.

This year we had four keynote presentations from Josephine Reid, Pervasive Computing Lab, Hewlett-Packard; Steve Benford, Mixed Reality Laboratory, University of Nottingham; Andrew McGrath, Director of Design and Usability, Orange Global and Crispin Jones, an industrial and interaction designer. We also had 13 papers from academia and industry, all providing useful insights into the practice of user-centred design with digital technologies.

We would like to thank the paper and keynote presenters, delegates and exhibitors for making the conference such as success.

Next year the conference will be moving to Edinburgh Napier University. Dates have yet to be confirmed but it is likely to be around the end of June. If you would like to submit a paper, video or exhibition, then please get in touch with one of the organising committee for further information.

We look forward to meeting you next year for more creative interventions
