DIS 2012

The ACM DIS conference on Designing Interactive Systems is the premier, international arena where designers, artists, psychologists, user experience researchers, systems engineers and many more come together to debate and shape the future of interactive systems design and practice. At DIS 2012 we will turn our focus to what happens when our interactive systems are used “in the wild”. Join us to discuss the opportunities, issues and challenges of interactive systems when they are placed in the lived, everyday experiences of people, institutions and practices.

DIS 2012 is held in the historic and beautiful city of Newcastle, UK. Situated on the River Tyne, Newcastle is the cultural capital of the North East, renowned for its relaxed pace, friendliness and active night life. DIS 2012 is hosted by the Culture Lab, a unique cross-disciplinary centre for creative and digital technologies research at Newcastle University.
