Abstract:
Chart creation for rhythm action games is a time consuming task that requires specialized design knowledge. While chart generation systems have been explored in the past, there are currently no co-creative chart authoring systems. In this paper, we present KiaiTime, a mixed-initiative, co-creative PCGML editor for the rhythm game Taiko no Tatsujin. KiaiTime allows the user to interface with an AI partner that acts as a source of guidance and inspiration in the chart creation process.

By profiling existing action by credit unions and community organisations, alongside bold proposals for the future, with contributions from artists, activists and academics, the book shows how we can rethink the validity and inevitability of many contemporary forms of debt through organising debt audits, promoting debt cancellation and expanding member-owned co-operatives.

Abstract:
The Commercial Agriculture for Smallholders and Agribusiness (CASA) programme aims to drive global investment towards climate-resilient agri-food systems that increase smallholder farmers' incomes. CASA's research component has recently identified the challenges faced in mobilizing climate finance for agriculture, and particularly for climate adaptation, as well as the existence of a funding gap for small and medium-sized agriculture enterprises (agri-SMEs) of around $106 billion (ISF Advisors, 2022).
