Preliminary Call for Videos for the KR 2024 Video Track
*******************************************************************************
We are very excited to announce the first edition of a video track as 
part of the 21st International Conference on Principles of Knowledge 
Representation and Reasoning (KR 2024). The aim of the video track is 
twofold. First, it wants to encourage KR groups to make the outcome of 
their work more accessible to a wider public and to foster good practice 
for KR outreach. Second, it provides researchers with a prominent 
platform to showcase interesting applications and insights and to make 
them available to a diverse audience from science, industry and the 
general public.

All accepted videos will be made available from the KR Inc website 
(https://kr.org/) and promoted on the KR Inc social media channels 
including the YouTube channel of the KR conference series 
(https://www.youtube.com/@krconferenceseries9472). There will be awards 
for the best received videos. The winners will be announced at the KR 
2024 conference.
