Paper and Workshop @ CHI2020

Along with a fantastic set of colleagues that span Simon Fraser University we had 1 archival paper accepted for publication at the CHI 2020 conference and it received a best paper honourable mention award!

Along with wonderful collaborators at Northumbria University, Newcastle University, Lancaster University, among others, we also had one workshop accepted:

Due to the pandemic, we revised our workshop plan and recreated it into a 2-day international, non-stop design workshop that started with participants in the UK and Europe, then was handed off to participants in North America, and then handed off to participants in Australia and Japan; and, then did the cycle all over again on the second day.
