For research presentations, roundtables, and informational sessions, please ensure the abstract clearly identifies your topic, its significance, and its relevance to the conference theme.
For artistic projects or expressive works, please briefly describe your work and its relationship to the conference theme. Include links to any internet-based content that you have produced, including social media content, that may help us visualize or hear your work and/or style.
