AIMS AND SCOPE
==============
This OZCHI 2008 workshop will discuss the ways that public, situated
displays can support communities. Our primary aim is to explore the
potential for situated displays to support communities of all kinds by
bringing together many individual community display projects, with the
added benefit of increasing awareness and communication between
researchers involved in this field. We hope to share experiences of
working with communities and the challenges this can involve and explore
the different approaches, techniques and technologies used by the
workshop participants.
In doing this, we aim to learn which of those have proved successful,
which have not been so successful, and facilitate comparison of the
various approaches and the contrasting communities in which they were
based. It is our hope that the workshop will encourage collaboration
between disparate research groups, and if suitable the outcomes of the
event may be considered for publication in an appropriate venue.
The day will comprise conference-style paper presentations, discussion
of emerging themes and issues from the presentations, and a group design
exercise based around a scenario for a new community display.
We welcome all contributions related to the use of public situated
displays in supporting communities. Relevant areas for discussion
include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Exploration of different settings and deployment environments
- Techniques for gathering requirements and information for design
- Display designs and design techniques
- Discussion of key deployment challenges
- Issues arising from working with communities
- Evaluation of community displays and different interaction techniques
- Issues arising from display content and repurposing of content
- Access control and possible solutions and approaches
- Persuasiveness and community-building effects
- Sustainability and evolution of solutions
- Managing multiple displays
- Enticing and encouraging users, incentives to contribute
- Role of gatekeepers and local champions
- Spaces and places
