Here's more info on INTERCHI '93. The next (and last) submission deadline
of 15 January 1993 applies to Short Papers, SIGs, and the Interactive
Experience. Request a "Call for Participation" from one of the contacts
below for more details on these. Advance Programmes will be available
shortly.

		 INTERCHI '93   BRIDGES BETWEEN WORLDS
	 1993 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems
			CHI '93 and INTERACT '93
	     24 - 29 April 1993, Amsterdam, The Netherlands


INTERCHI '93 is a continuation and blending of the traditions of
ACM/SIGCHI's annual CHI conference and IFIP TC 13's tri-annual INTERACT
conference. It combines the two leading events for researchers,
developers, and users in the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).
This conference is a bridge between many kinds of worlds: countries and
continents; languages and cultures; scientific disciplines; theory and
application; academia, industry, and users; researchers, developers,
educators, consultants, lawyers, and administrators; applications,
services, and functions.

INTERCHI '93 bridges a traditional view of HCI and a new one.
This new view is multifaceted: computing is present everywhere not
only via workstations; communication is low cost and
instantaneous; new input and output devices extend beyond
keyboards and displays; applications encompass the casual and the
critical, work and play, and art and science; isolated
perspectives are integrated; the user is recognized as part of a
social, physical and technical environment; the process of design
is as important as the resulting products; and design is
responsive to regulation, standardisation, and legal protection.

With this view in mind, we invite you to participate in INTERCHI
'93 in Amsterdam, the 24th - 29th of April, 1993, as we experience
and discuss the world of HCI.

		MEDIA COMMENTS ON LAST YEAR'S CONFERENCE

"They're here from Apple Computer, Sony, IBM, NEC, Phillips and
elite university labs from around the world to swap their ideas
...  If you touch a keyboard, a VCR, a PC, a photocopier or an
ATM, these people touch you."
     - Michael Schrage
	  Innovation Los Angeles Times

"Clearly the next generation of computer-human interface should
make technology adapt to us rather than make us adapt to
technology.

"The point of CHI and the work of most of the 2,500 people who
attend
 ... is to improve the interaction between people and computers.

"...you should have been there."
      - Communication Arts

"CHI addresses all aspects of computer/human interaction:
displays, psychology, interfaces, pointing devices, sound,
graphics, and more.

"The mix of people at CHI is one of its greatest attractions, and
because the quality of those people is so high the resulting
cross-fertilization of ideas is exceptionally valuable."
      - CyberEdge Journal


			 INTERCHI '93 CHECKLIST

-Manager approval to attend the conference.  Note: For North American
attendees, in the spring, round trip air fare to Amsterdam is about the
same as flying coast to coast in the US.

-Schedule site visits to associate organisations and meetings with
European contacts in conjunction with travel to the conference.

-Passport.

-Interface designs, challenges and strategies to discuss with the
international HCI community.

			   ADVANCE PROGRAMMES

INTERCHI '93 advance programmes will be available in December.

INTERCHI '93 is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery Special
Interest Group on Computer and Human Interaction (ACM/SIGCHI) under the
aegis of the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP) in
cooperation with the IFIP Technical Committee 13 on Human Computer Interaction
(IFIP TC 13).  INTERCHI '93 is hosted by the Man Computer Interaction Group
of the section on Social Aspects of Informations and Automation of the 
Dutch Computer Society (NGI, Nederlands Genootschap voor Informatica).
