CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS:

Interaction Design and Architecture(s) Journal - IxD&A
(ISSN 1826-9745)
new electronic version and format: http://www.scuolaiad.it/IxDEA/
now open for submission
===========================================

IxD&A aims to offer an interdisciplinary arena where everybody can present
top level researches and discuss ideas on the future of technology
mediated experiences in the field of communication, learning, working,
entertainment, healthcare, etc...) a future that can be made possible by a
joint effort in research and education.
IxD&A, indeed, offers the ideal forum for meeting between frontier
research, education, cutting edge technology development and application.

IxD&A is expected to cover future and state-of-the-art technologies,
theoretical concepts, field trials, ongoing research projects, cultural
media studies and innovative applications. We encourage cross-disciplinary
contributions from interaction designers, technology developers, computer
scientists, cognitive scientists, anthropologists, designers and
architects, educators, researchers and practitioners to address new trends
and challenges in interactive system design, nomadism & ubiquity,
personalization and contextualization, identities and glocalities,
mixed/enhanced environments, design for experiences, experience styles and
monitoring, aesthetic interaction, etc.
