Conference Theme

The 2009 conference theme is Design: Open 24/7. Accessibility, inclusivity and dissolving boundaries are core to the Open 24/7 theme for the design of human interaction with and through digital technologies. The integration of digital technologies into our everyday life allows for a seamless transitioning between open and closed, work and leisure, public and private. Open implies participation and collaboration across traditional borders between individuals, organisations and disciplines. OZCHI 2009 provides a forum to discuss all aspects of openness, open borders, open participation, open source and open architecture. Theme-related submissions may address these topics:

  • Open always-on real-time ubiquitous and pervasive designs
  • Open design and universality versus situatedness, contextualisation and personalisation
  • Open source for design – design for open source
  • Open mind – new ideas, concepts and approaches from outside HCI
  • Beyond open – never closed: design for escapism

Conference Topics

  • Augmented Reality
