2019 - the year of anniversaries: Time to reflect and look ahead.
- 30th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall
- 30th Hypertext Conference
- 30th Anniversary of the WWW
- 20th Anniversary of the first ACM Hypertext Conference in Germany
----------------
CONFERENCE SCOPE
----------------
The ACM Hypertext conference is a premium venue for high quality
peer-reviewed research on hypertext theory, systems and applications. It
is concerned with all aspects of modern hypertext research including
social media, semantic web, dynamic and computed hypertext and
hypermedia as well as narrative systems and applications.
The theme of Hypertext 2019 is "HYPERTEXT - TEAR DOWN THE WALL". This
motto of the 30th ACM Hypertext conference goes hand in hand with the
30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Inspired by the
historical events in Germany, Hypertext 2019 aims at reunifying
different hypertext research directions and communities. Therefore,
apart from the regular research tracks, Hypertext 2019 will feature a
research track on 30 Years Hypertext as well as an exhibition/creative
track. 2019 will also be the 30th anniversary of the WWW. It is a
perfect time to join in, reflect our common roots, and discuss how we
can jointly address our current and future challenges.
The conference will take place at the Institute of Information Systems
(iisys) at Hof University, Germany. Hof lies midway between Frankfurt
and Prague, Munich and Berlin and is very close to the former
German-German border, in particular to the village of Mödlareuth, called
"little Berlin", which used to be divided by a wall. After exactly 20
years, Hypertext 2019 will take place in Germany again for the 2nd time.
Hypertext 2019 is co-locating with the Adaptivity and User Modeling
Workshop (ABIS'19), taking place on Sep 16 at Hof University, and with
ACM Document Engineering Conference (DocEng'19) organized in Berlin,
Germany, between Sep 23-16.

TRACK 5: SPECIAL TRACK - 30 YEARS HYPERTEXT
Track Chair: Peter Nürnberg, USA
We invite submissions of a broad range of research focusing on
reflections on or retrospectives of hypertext approaches and systems.
Those should focus on "forgotten" issues, beneficial features, system
behavior, or theories that were discovered, but are ignored by current
systems. Contributions should be visionary and discuss those old ideas
with a strong focus on today's information systems; they should conclude
where and to which extent previously discovered ideas would enhance our
current or future applications.

The conference will include a creative track and exhibition, with
readings and performances, workshops, demonstrations of both novel and
historical systems, and innovative new work in electronic art and
literature.
For the creative track, we invite submissions from all disciplines that
engage with the expressive potential of hypertext, the link, and of
social media-particularly those that address the conference theme of
"tear down the wall".
The curated exhibition seeks hypertextual works of any length that
explore new artistic forms, or that respond to or engage with older
electronic literature. We are especially interested in location-aware
and locative work that can be read in or near the conference site. We
are open to work on any platform. Questions regarding creative work for
the exhibition may be addressed to the curator.
Limited travel funds and bursaries may be available, as well as
assistance and support for installation on site. Proposals for papers,
panels, master-classes, workshops, and creative work for the exhibition
should be submitted by 19 May 2019.
DOCTORAL COLLOQUIUM
Chair: Ethan Munson, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, USA
This track is specific for graduate students (PhD or Master). They can
present their work and receive immediate and valuable feedback from experts.
