The workshops at CHI this year are fantastic. The conference appears to be expanding its notion of what constitutions interactions between technology and people/society (away from the 1-1 computer/human paradigm that was often emphasized).
I’m debating between applying to:
– W1. Engaging The City: Public Interfaces As Civic Intermediary
– W18. Designing Technology for Community Appropriation
[It should be noted that there are lots of other workshops that might be applicable to various readers of this blog so do check it out if you’re so inclined. The deadline for workshop applications is January 3 which is a complete bitch.]
