We are pleased to announce that Pictorials accepted submissions will be included in the proceedings of DIS 2018 and will considered archival publications—that is, they will be similarly reviewed and will stand as the same quality of contribution as technical program papers and short papers (or “notes”). The deadline for DIS 2018 PICTORIALS is January 8 2018, which is the same deadline as the papers and notes deadline. Pictorials should be submitted via PCS (the same as papers and notes are, https://precisionconference.com/~sigchi/ ). PCS is now open for Pictorials submissions. More information can be found at: <http://www.dis2016.org/call-for-papers/pictorials/> http://www.dis2018.org/submi/pictorials.html IMPORTANT DATES January 8, 2018: Final Submission. The submission system closes at 23:59 PST. March 5, 2018: Author Notification March 28 2018: Camera ready due DIS 2018 - PICTORIALS As design perspectives have increasingly become integrated in HCI practice and research, new opportunities are needed to communicate design practices, processes, products and artifacts to the HCI community. The DIS 2018 Pictorials track builds on the success of the Pictorials track in DIS from 2014-2017, and the recent addition of Pictorials in the Creativity and Cognition 2017 conference. Pictorials are papers and essays in which the visual components (e.g. diagrams, sketches, illustrations, renderings, photographs, annotated photographs, collages) are at least as important and possibly more important than the texts. In Pictorials, production value and visual quality matters. Pictorials may have a practical or theoretical nature or both. Through DIS Pictorials, design practitioners in academia, industry, non-profits, or collectives are encouraged to express and unpack their design practices and projects in rich, heavily visual ways. This format will help foster discussions among authors, conference attendees and the wider community through the sharing of methods, insights and lessons learned from engaging in the design of interactive systems and artifacts. We welcome submissions related to the design of interactive systems as well as the conference theme of “Diversity and Design.” Rather than constrain what is submitted, we invite you to submit a wide variety of work at the intersection of visual design and HCI or interaction design. Submissions will be judged on their merits as visual forms, meanings, and relevance to HCI or interaction design. You may include video in the supplemental materials, but you should represent the content of such videos in the print form pictorial document in a manner that permits the print form to stand alone. Pictorials are expected to be original work created specifically for the pictorials track. Expect the track to be competitive and submit your best work. Expect an acceptance rate of around 20-25%. Please do not submit work you have submitted elsewhere with a few images added. Doing so may violate simultaneous submission rules. You may submit previously published work to which you have added significant visual content, provided only that such work is clearly and prominently attributed as such in a footnote to the title with a clear description of what the pictorial adds. In this last case, at least 30% of the material must be new, per ACM rules. You must be the author and copyright holder of all materials you submit, particularly all visual materials. Submitted work must comply with ACM policies. Format Pictorials should be submitted in the DIS 2018 Extended Abstract Format and not exceed 12 pages, excluding references. The first page of the submission should include the submission’s title, author(s) and their affiliation(s) (leave blank for double blind review), and a written abstract of no more than 100 words succinctly describing the background and context of the pictorial as well as its contribution to the DIS community. Further written parts known from other conference formats such as Introduction, Conclusion, Discussion, Acknowledgements, and References are optional. The main part of the submission should be an annotated visual composition and we encourage submissions to use the Extended Abstract format creatively—see the DIS pictorials example template: http://dis2018.org//files/DISPictorials2018.zip All submissions should be anonymous and submitted via the DIS 2018 PCS system. Review and Selection Double Blind-review submissions are juried by the DIS Pictorials program committee, recruited from academia and industry by the chairs of the format. Accepted DIS Pictorials will be distributed by the conference and in the ACM Digital Library where they will remain accessible to researchers and practitioners worldwide. Authors will be expected to attend the conference and will be assigned a time and location to present accepted submission to conference attendees.
