Celine LatulipeACM Creativity & Cognition is happening online next week in Gather. I am the virtual platform chair and I have spent WAY too many hours building a conference space that evokes London, as the 2026 conference will be in person in London.
Fully virtual conferences are accessible to all - sustainable, affordable, equitable, better for folks with caring responsibilities and those unable to travel due to VISA issues. C&C is fully virtual every other year. Join us! @acm_creativitycognition #SIGCHI
Jo VermeulenI'm wondering if anyone has recent experience with the practical turnaround time for #TOCHI nowadays. It looks like they aim to make decisions in about 90 days: https://dl.acm.org/journal/tochi/author-guidelines #sigchi #HCI
ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTER-HUMAN INTERACTION Author Guidelines | ACM Digital Library
ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction (TOCHI) covers the software, hardware and human aspects of interaction with computers. Topics include hardware and software architectures; interactive techniques, metaphors, and evaluation; user interface design processes; and users and groups of users. Those within the artificial intelligence, object-oriented systems, information systems, graphics and software engineering communities, will benefit from the high quality research papers in TOCHI concerning information and ideas directly related to the construction of effective human-computer interfaces.
