23rd-26th January 2011: TEI Conference in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal


TEI is the premier venue for cutting edge research on interaction with  
tangible artefacts and systems. We invite submissions of prototypes  
and daring ideas, tools and technologies, methods and models, as well  
as interactive art, interaction design, and user experience that  
contribute new understandings to the broad area of tangible computing,  
embodied interaction, interactive surfaces and embedded interactive  
systems. The 5th edition of the highly successful Tangible, Embedded  
and Embodied Interaction (TEI) Conference series will be held between  
23rd and 26th January 2011 in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal. Papers will  
be published in the ACM digital library.

In recent years, computing has progressively moved beyond the desktop  
into new physical and social contexts. As physical artifacts gain new  
computational behaviors, they become reprogrammable, customizable,  
repurposable, and interoperable in rich ecologies and diverse  
contexts. They also become more complex, and require intense design  
effort in order to be functional, usable, and enjoyable. Designing  
such systems demands interdisciplinary thinking. Their creation must  
encompass software, electronics, and mechanics, but also the system's  
physical form and behavior, its social and physical milieu, and beyond.

Research on tangible and embedded interaction has gained substantial  
visibility and activity over the past decade and it has worn many  
names, including tangible interfaces, graspable interfaces, physical  
computing, tangible interaction, IT product design, appliance design,  
interactive spaces. It has also been associated with larger research  
areas, including mixed, virtual, and augmented reality and ubiquitous  
and pervasive computing. TEI brings together this emerging field,  
providing a meeting ground for the diverse communities of research and  
practice - from computing, hardware, and sensor technology, to HCI,  
interaction design, and CSCW, to product and industrial design and  
interactive arts. We invite submissions from all these perspectives,  
be they theoretical, conceptual, technical, applied, or artistic. The  
conference is designed to provide appropriate presentation forms for  
different types of contributions including talks, interactive  
exhibits, demos or performances, and posters. Accepted submissions of  
all types will be included in the Proceedings as papers and will be  
integrated within the single-track conference. Interdisciplinary  
submissions are particularly welcome.

TOPICS for SUBMISSION
Authors are invited to submit high-quality work detailing original  
research that contributes to advancing the field. Appropriate topics  
include but are not limited to:
- Case studies and evaluations of working deployments
- Analysis of key challenges, proposals of research agenda
- Relation of tangible embodied and embedded interaction to other  
paradigms
- Programming paradigms and tools, toolkits, software architectures
- Novel interactive uses of sensors+actuators, electronics+mechatronics
- Design guidelines, methods, and processes
- Novel application areas, innovative solutions/systems and industrial  
applications
- Theoretical foundations, frameworks, and concepts
- Philosophical, ethical & social implications
- Interfaces specific in form and context to particular cultures
- Usability and enjoyment
- Advantages, weakness, affordances of tangible, embedded and embodied  
interaction
- Learning from the role of physicality in everyday environments
- Tangible interfaces for children and learning
- Embodied interaction, movement, and choreography of interaction
- Role of physicality for human perception, cognition and experience
- Teaching experiences, lessons learned, and best practices
- Standardization, production, and business applications
- Tangible interaction for artistic, expressive and musical systems
- Tabletop, surface, and multi-touch interaction

PAPERS
Papers must present original material and will be reviewed rigorously  
by at least three reviewers in a double-blind process. Papers in all  
areas will be assessed on their contribution to the field. Papers are  
due 1st August 2010. Papers may be 8, 4, or 2 pages long in ACM SIGCHI  
2-column format. All papers will undergo the same review process and  
be published in the same way. Length must match the contribution, and  
the same general criteria hold for all papers. Regardless of length, a  
paper may be presented as a talk, poster, exhibit or demo. For  
example, a novel design might be presented as an interactive exhibit  
and published as an 8 page paper, while a novel sensor technique might  
be presented as a talk and published as a 2 page paper - or vice  
versa. On submission authors may propose the presentation format(s)  
that they feel best suits their contribution (talk, demo or poster).  
TEI 2011 remains committed to the principle followed in previous TEI  
conferences - that TEI values all submissions equally. One author of  
each accepted submission must register for the conference before the  
early registration deadline in order for the final paper version to  
appear in the conference proceedings. Please contact the Program  
Chairs Ellen Yi-Luen Do, Stephen Brewster and Ian Oakley on tei-2011-papers at googlegroups.com 
  with questions about Paper submissions.

PROPOSALS for STUDIOS
TEI 2011 invites proposals for one-day or half-day studios to be held  
in multiple tracks on Sunday, 23rd January 2011. Studios are hands-on  
events that offer novel practical experiences to conference attendees  
with diverse skills and technical backgrounds. Studio proposals can  
range from the exploration of new development toolkits, to prototype  
design techniques, and the creative application of emerging or  
traditional materials. Emphasis is on making, building, creating and  
hacking. Each studio should aim to host between 10 and 15  
participants. Arrangements will be made to present the results on  
subsequent single-track days of the conference. Studio proposals are  
due 1st August 2010. Please contact the Workshops and Studios Co- 
Chairs, Pedro Branco and Jos van Leeuwen on tei-2011-w-s at googlegroups.com 
, with questions about Studios.

PROPOSALS for WORKSHOPS
TEI 2011 invites proposals for half- or full-day workshops to be held  
in multiple tracks on Sunday, 23rd January 2011. Workshops are  
traditional mini-symposia on specialized topics that complement the  
main program. These might address basic or applied research issues,  
tackle a particular interdisciplinary topic, consider a new  
methodology or examine an emerging application area. While they may  
involve a practical component, the emphasis is on the collation,  
curation and dissemination of workshop papers. Organisers are  
encouraged to arrange for later publication of extended versions of  
these submissions in a journal special issue. Workshop proposals are  
due 1st August 2010. Please contact the Workshops and Studios Co- 
Chairs, Pedro Branco and Jos van Leeuwen on tei-2011-w-s at googlegroups.com 
, with questions about Studios.


EXPLORATIONS
The TEI 2011 Explorations comprise several submission formats intended  
to embrace and nurture contributions from a wide range of communities  
- such as artists, designers and graduate students - as well as  
support the publication of cutting edge research. TEI Explorations  
include the Graduate Student Consortium and Art tracks (both  
successfully inaugurated at TEI'10) as well as a new Tangible  
Interaction Design Challenge. The submission deadline for these tracks  
is 17th October 2010; full details will be confirmed in subsequent CfPs.
