Are you an artist?
Are you an HCI researcher?
How does this duality affect your practice and research?
We aim to explore the tensions and joys, pitfalls, and potentials of artistic and visual thinking for the CHI community. How might we elucidate and explore these practices, how might they evolve, could we celebrate and appreciate these formats alongside the more expected outputs of the researcher or industry practitioner?
Join us in a one-day exploration of a “plurality of practices” designed to redefine how the arts and artistic outputs are defined at CHI and other ACM conferences.
We invite you to explore your artistic practice, the tensions, and coincidences, the emotions, that exist in the boundaries between HCI research and your own personal outputs. Potential participants should submit a 4-6 page position paper on the topic around the topic of “visual arts practice and HCI” in pictorial format – that is, the ACM paper format that celebrates the image, form, or maker output over written text.
The CHI 2022 requirement is that at least one author of each accepted submission must attend the workshop and that all participants must register for both the workshop and for at least one day of the conference.
