CALL FOR PAPERS
The 4th Workshop on Games-Human Interaction – GHItaly21 is the fourth edition of a series of workshops focused on the multifaceted issues related to the design and development of human-game interfaces. GHItaly21 aims at establishing a common venue for scholars and industry practitioners, where they can exchange ideas on all the topic related to this multidisciplinary field, and possibly create new collaborations. The main goal of the event is to spur discussion on the development of new ways of researching, teaching, and working on HCI applied to design and production of video games. The application range of video games has to be intended in its broadest sense: from entertainment and to “serious” applied finalities (health, education, etc).
GHItaly21 will be held online in conjunction with the 14th Edition of CHItaly, the biannual Conference of the Italian ACM SIGCHI Chapter, from 11 to 13 of July 2021 in Bolzano.
