HCI Remixed Project -- Call for Participation

We are inviting you to contribute to a unique 
project for the HCI community; the HCI Remixed 
Project! Our aim is to produce a collection of 
essays in which researchers and practitioners 
reflect on a paper or other piece of work by 
someone else, that is at least 10 years old, and 
that has had a personal impact on their view of 
or approach to HCI.

We intend the essays to be brief (about 1800 
words), personal in tone, and reflective in 
nature. In form they are similar to book reviews, 
but rather than taking a critical stance the goal 
is for each essay to examine the positive impacts 
the work has had. We believe that a collection of 
such work will provide a unique perspective on 
how HCI has developed, will direct readers to 
forgotten or underappreciated work, and will 
perhaps remind them that their own work, by 
influencing others, can have a lasting impact on 
the future of HCI.

A full description of the HCI Remixed Project, 
including Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), 
submission process, and deadlines are available 
on our web pages:
http://www.visi.com/~snowfall/HCIremixed.html

We are broadly soliciting essay contributions from the HCI community.

The following lays out our schedule for this set of essays:

 May 12, 2006 - Statement of interest, 
indicating the work you would like to write 
about, and a paragraph synopsis of your essay. We 
will reply to your statement of interest as 
quickly as possible.

 June 16, 2006 - Polished Essay Due

 Week of July 10, 2006 - Accept/Reject Notifications

If you have questions that are not addressed by 
our website and our FAQ, or if you would like to 
discuss possible essay topics, please contact us
