[SIGBOVIK] SIGBOVIK 2022 Call for Papers and Reviews

[SIGBOVIK Announcements]

To All Students, Faculty, Staff, Rats of GHC, and Sentient AIs:

The sixteenth annual SIGBOVIK conference will take place at Carnegie Mellon
University on Friday, April 8, 2022. The Special Interest Group on Harry Q.
Bovik is a multidisciplinary conference dedicated to lesser-known research
areas neglected by mainstream conferences, such as:

   - Complexity practice,

   - Software theorizing,

   - Multi-armed philanthropists,

   - Connotational semantics,

   - Computer-computer interaction,

   - Data of unusual size,

   - And many more!

We encourage everyone to submit both papers and reviews, regardless of
affiliation, discipline, irrationality, or lack of goodwill. Authors of
accepted papers are encouraged (but not required) to give a ten-minute
presentation of their work.

We all know you’ve been diligently working on your SIGBOVIK submissions
over Spring Break. *The initial submission deadline for both papers and
reviews is March 21st *(but of course we'll extend it knowing that
everybody is lazy)*.* Submit them on our uncomfortably easychair
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sigbovik2022>.

Due to its immense success last year, we will again be using our innovative
*triple-blind* peer review process: In addition to concealing reviewers and
authors from each other, the papers will also be concealed from the
reviewers.

Further disinformation will be available on our website
<http://sigbovik.org/2022>, once we figure out how to overcome our robot
overlords.

If you have no idea what’s going on:

SIGBOVIK is an evening of tongue-in-cheek academic presentations. If we
have a goal, it’s to poke fun at our fields and provide a venue for silly
ideas with (often but not always) serious executions. SIGBOVIK has both
published proceedings and live talks, and everyone is welcome to
participate in either or both of these. All subjects are welcome, although
be advised that the primary audience is computer scientists. The best way
to get a feel for SIGBOVIK is to look at our past proceedings, which you
can find at http://sigbovik.org.
