(Apologies for re-posting, as the previous posting did not have good formatting of the text) *CALL FOR PARTICIPATION* *ACM International Conference on Tangible, Embedded and Embodied Interaction (TEI) 2019* *March 17-20, 2019 in Tempe, Arizona* http://www.tei-conf.org/2019 TEI 2019 is the 13th annual conference dedicated to presenting the latest results in tangible, embedded, and embodied interaction. It will be held 17th to 20th March, 2019, and is hosted by Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, USA. The conference will be sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and Arizona State University. In the past, TEI has addressed issues of human-computer interaction, novel tools and technologies, interactive art, and user experience. The work presented at TEI has a strong focus on how computing can bridge atoms and bits into cohesive interactive systems. The particular theme this year is Hybrid Materials. Over the past few years, TEI research has increasingly embraced hybridity, whether through material explorations of composites such as bioelectronic, on-body, or active materials, or theoretical inquiries into socio-technical systems as hybrid assemblies. These hybrid, materially-oriented approaches are radically changing our understanding of what tangible interaction looks and feels like. The theme of Hybrid Materials will continue to catalyze this exciting trend of tangible interaction research at the intersection of social, technical, biological, and artistic systems. The TEI conference has gained substantial visibility and activity over the past decade. It brings together researchers, practitioners, businesses, artists, designers and students from various disciplines, including engineering, interaction design, product design, computer science, and the arts. Application areas are diverse, including: human-augmentation, flexible and shape changing displays, haptic interaction, interactive surfaces, public art and performance, interactive robotics, games, learning, planning, automotive, fashion, furniture, architectural design, music and sound creation, as well as productivity and creativity tools in domains ranging from scientific exploration to non-linear narrative. The intimate size of this single-track conference provides a unique forum for exchanging ideas and presenting innovative work through talks, demonstrations, posters, art installations and performances, and participating in hands-on studio/workshops. We invite submissions from all of these perspectives: theoretical, conceptual, technical, applied, or artistic. We invite submissions to the following tracks (with corresponding submission deadlines at 12pm PST): *Papers* August 8, 2018 *Studio* August 29, 2018 *Arts Track* November 7, 2018 *Graduate Student Consortium* November 9, 2018 *Work in Progress* November 14, 2018 *Student Design Challenge* November 26, 2018 *Student Volunteers* January 1st, 2019 (applications deadline) *Studios and Graduate Student Consortium meeting at TEI 2019* March 17, 2019 (Sunday) *TEI 2019 Conference* March 18-20, 2019 (Monday-Wednesday) More information about each track is available here: https://tei.acm.org/2019/index.html *GENERAL CHAIRS* Stacey Kuznetsov, Arizona State University Daniel Saakes, KAIST Ron Wakkary, Simon Fraser University *PROGRAM CHAIRS* Luc Geurts, KU Leuven Lauren Hayes, Arizona State University Manfred Lau, Lancaster University Please contact us if you have any questions: https://tei.acm.org/2019/people.html ----------------------------------------------------------------- PhD-Design mailing list <[log in to unmask]> Discussion of PhD studies and related research in Design Subscribe or Unsubscribe at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/phd-design -----------------------------------------------------------------
