The role of the emcee is a highly selective position of which the preparation usually lasts for around 8 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Heidelberg Laureate Forum is a yearly event where 100 students each from Mathematics and Computer Science are carefully selected to partake, network and have the chance to interact for a week with ACM Turing Awardees, Fields Medalists, Nevellina Prize and other prestigious awardees who have made significant contribution in Mathematics and Computer Science. Jordan was an alumni of the said forum in September 2022. His co-emcee James Alexander Spann was also a PhD student who he met during the same year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As emcees, they are given the important position to introduce and guide the solemn opening of the HLF. As alumni they interacted with fellow alumni and young researchers. They also got the chance to work closely with the Laureates and running some sessions that help the Young Researchers during the forum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jordan also co-organised the HCI@HLF meetup, which they also started in 2022. This mini event happens during the Boat Trip across the Neckar river. HCI researchers who are part of HLF get to interact with key personalities in HCI, Computer Graphics and Computing in General.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"702\" data-id=\"1860\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-1.png 936w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-1-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-1-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1862\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-2-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1862\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-2-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-2-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-2.png 936w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"624\" data-id=\"1861\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-3.png 936w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-3-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-3-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jordan (in the middle) with Rafael Lang, Chair of the Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation and James Alexander Spann, his fellow emcee.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"624\" data-id=\"1864\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-4.png 936w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-4-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-4-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jordan with the President of the Norweigan Academy of Sciences.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1865\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-5-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-5-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-5-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-5.png 936w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jordan with Pat Hanrahan, pioneer at Pixar studios and a world-reknown expert in Computer Graphics.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"702\" data-id=\"1863\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-6.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-6.png 936w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-6-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-6-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Group photo of the HCI@HLF mini meetup.
