Dear colleagues, On behalf of the program committee team, I’d like to draw your attention to the upcoming Interaction 23<https://interaction23.ixda.org/> week to be held in Zurich from 25th February until 3d March 2023. Interaction 23 is a premier venue for interaction design practitioners, researchers, and educators to discuss emergent practice-based challenges, share best practices in the discipline, and call for a change through design. It is organized by the Interaction Design Association (IxDA). This year’s CfP<https://interaction23.ixda.org/call-for-proposals> theme includes several topical areas highly relevant to HCI research community: decentralization by design, supporting decision-making practices, creating new work experiences, and lowering environmental impact of technologies. Check-out Interactions 23 call for proposals below and submit an idea for a talk, a workshop or a panel by 4th September 2022. Submissions are in a very lightweight format! Interaction 23 is a great way to establish and strengthen the links between academia and a wide community of (interaction) design practitioners. We hope many of you decide to participate. Best regards, Thomas Link, Karmen Franinović, Daniel Boos, Anton Fedosov, and the Interactions 23 Team.

And exactly because solid defining factors of the past are icons around the world, we invite you to join us in (re)defining the power of design in our Interaction 23 conference. Interaction 23 is a call – a call to formulate essential design positions about how we want to (re)define life across the planet. The inevitable transformations of personal lives and social structures have gathered momentum. To be defined/designed… The last two years saw the redefinition of collaborative efforts, workplace culture and collaboration in general. Moving into the era of ‘hybrid everything’, Interaction 23 - the conference to be defined by you - will support participants joining physically and virtually from all over the world. We seek talks, panels, sessions, and workshops by individuals from all walks of life, in any language, anywhere in the world. What can be redefined? What must be redesigned? Interaction design contributes to (re)designing the role of technology in perpetuating social and environmental justice and injustice, but also has much to learn from other disciplines. That’s why we’re inviting submissions from fields working with people, design, environment, and technology. We are looking for speakers offering diverse perspectives, specific case studies, visions or hands-on design approaches in one of the areas to be (re)defined by design: * design decision-making processes * decentralisation for the better * create new work experiences * the environmental impact of technology * estabslishing design ethics * (re)defined by design Read the call for proposals: https://interaction23.ixda.org/call-for-proposals<https://interaction23.…
