Hi @andrewrobertson , it seems the [call for demos](https://nime2026hma.github.io/2026/05/08/call-for-demos.html) is now closed for workshop #666; this workshop is self-managing its own sign-ups but I can not find any information in the website wrt registering without presenting a demo. I will email them now and update the info here when I hear back.

Hi

this workshop does have an open call for demos and we are still taking sign ups. If you are making playful work we would love for you to share your work and approach.
