No matter how long you have been part of it, academic life is characterized by rejection.

Please share: I’ll be building a team of three PhD students and a postdoc. So let’s get in touch if you're interested in pioneering research on Mixed Reality collaboration!

📢The open access version of our book is available now via OUP's site: global.oup.com/academic/pro...

Our 20yr old daughter is off to study for 3 years to the Netherlands, where we first moved to 23 years ago, almost to the day (18/8/2002). As she hugged me goodbye she said “dad, thanks for all the help ❤️” 🥹

It's amazing to have the book in my hand now, after several years of working on it with Kasper and Per Ola.

In a nutshell, it's a new textbook for introductory-level HCI courses:
✅ 10 parts, covering the whole HCI process
✅ 864 pages and 1.9 kgs
✅ Open access (!)

👑 @blumineck.bsky.social

Wonderful talk by @qveraliao.bsky.social on bridging the socio-technical gap in AI.

DL just around the corner! Apply by May 15 if you're interested in advancing research on theory translation and games

Our ever smiling boy was born 🎂 on #MothersDay. Seventeen years later, both celebrations fall once again on the same day. Congratulations to both and to all mothers out there! ❤️

Sayōnara Yokohama! Safe travels back from #chi2025 everyone!

Ok, so apparently CHInosaur was active on the other site during #chi2025.

For a while, I thought CHInosaur had evolved into @chiyote.bsky.social. Perhaps not?

🤔

I hope I can be half as awesome as the #chi2025 keynote speaker, Wakamiyu Masako, when I grow up. She’s a technology legend at 90!

Masako Wakamiya’s #chi2025 closing keynote ‘Designing Beyond Age: Rethinking Inclusion and Interaction in a 100-Year Life’: “elderly people will eventually find it difficult to go out […] and may think this is impossible to escape [but] with digital technologies, it’s no longer impossible.”

Always my pleasure!

Concept artist @kortizart.bsky.social (Marvel, Dr. Strange) at the #chi2025 panel on “Forging an HCI Research Agenda with Artists Impacted by Generative AI”:

“Consider concept artists’ hard labor that is taken for free. […] It’s really disrespectful.”

After lunch, please come see @notsarahsong.bsky.social’s #chi2025 talk:

“Walking in My Shoes: An Autoethnography of Techno-Spiritual Practices”

Spirituality and Legacies session in room G304.

This morning in room G414+G415 at 9:00, I'll be chairing a very special #CHI2025 session:

More than Human 2.

Forests, wood, lemurs, cats, creeks, ecologies and aesthetics.

What's not to like?

Please join us!

@mutalenkonde.bsky.social’s #CHI2025 opening keynote: “Internet culture was pioneered by the far right. […] Those of us who think about the #sociotechnical would’ve been able to advise our computer science colleagues that Nazi-ism is common in Internet culture and we need to design around it.”

A woman stands on stage, delivering a presentation while the audience listens attentively.

#CHI2025 had 5020 submissions—1,249 accepted papers—for a 24,9% acceptance rate!

Indeed, where is #CHInosaur?

#NomNom #chi2025

If you are at #chi2025 you should go to an altchi session. It’s the last time altchi will ever run and your last opportunity to see its joy, creativity, and alterity. There is nothing like it

dont worry about fomo for not catching the hot LLM session, there will be more of those I promise

Please note that the walk from Minatorimai station (1), to Pacifico Yokohama North (2) to pick up your #chi2025 badge, and the National Convention Hall (3) for the opening plenary is easily a 15-25 minute walk.
