Late Breaking Works | SportsHCI 2026

This year at #chi2026 we had a Job Fair with Amazing Exhibitors, Interactive Demos, Breakthrough Posters, and Live Catalan Rumba Music!
Congrats to Jon Froehlich, Jacki O'Neill, & Volker Wulf as the 2026 recipents of the #SIGCHI Societal Impact Awards for 2026 at #chi2026!
This year @sigchi welcomed 11 new CHI Academy members at #chi2026! Congrats to them all for driving our community forward!
Tamar Makin & Dani Clode gave us an amazing closing keynote on With, Not For: Rethinking the Body (and Brain?) in Augmented Interaction at #chi2026! Across neuroscience and design, they argue for a shift from imitating the biological body to working with itβ€”questioning assumptions about embodiment and extending the human form and the primacy of the five-finger hand.
The #SIGCHI Lifetime Service Awards went to Cliff Lampe & Helena M. Mentis at #CHI2026! Many thanks to them for their dedication, endeavors, and mountains of work they do for our community.
Last month Pep Gatell gave the opening keynote at #chi2026 which included a great discussion on art and technology and people (along with some interactive surprises!).
The most interesting question some folks asked me at #CHI2026 was: "did you not do a video with all the lab's paper this year?" Indeed, given the chairing work, I wasn't able too, but the enthusiasm of these folks helped me do it now πŸ™! Here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VVtHGljuXI

➑️ Just got back from five days at #CHI2026 in Barcelona, and I am still sorting through notes and a long list of papers I want to read properly.

It was nice to see so many familiar faces again, people I usually only run into at conferences like CHI, and to meet new ones along the way. We talked about everything from things close to my own research to topics pretty far from it.
