The 2017 ACM conference on Designing Interactive Systems Conference. The theme of DIS 2017 is bridging and connecting – across disciplines, practices, places and understandings. The most interesting things happen at edges and boundaries, and so the aim of the 2017 conference is to examine different approaches to framing knowledge about the design of interactive systems.
As advancements in interactive technology continue to blur the demarcations between people and data, and between things and software, interaction designers and researchers are finding new ways to explore this evolving, interdisciplinary landscape. At DIS 2017 they will consider the contrasts and commonalities that are central in shaping the landscape of emerging interaction paradigms.
Previously a bi-annual conference, this will now be held annually.
