OzCHI is the annual non-profit conference for the Computer-Human Interaction Special Interest Group (CHISIG) of the Human Factors and Ergonomic Society of Australia and Australia's leading forum for the latest in HCI research and practice. OzCHI attracts a broad international community of researchers, industry practitioners, academics and students. Participants come from a range of backgrounds, including interface designers, user experience (UX) practitioners, information architects, software engineers, human factors experts, information systems analysts and social scientists.

The conference theme is human-nature, which highlights the challenges we all face in the endeavour to tame the environment without destroying it, so as to ensure our continuing existence. Join us in Brisbane to explore and understand the design and role of contemporary interactive technologies.

We invite contributions on all topics related to Human-Computer Interaction, Interaction Design and the design of interactive technologies. Areas include practical, technical, empirical and theoretical aspects of Human-Computer Interaction. We welcome submissions from design, architecture, engineering, planning, social science, creative industries, and other related disciplines.

Submissions will be accepted in various categories as described below. All submissions must be written in English and follow formatting guidelines in the paper template. Both long and short papers will undergo a double-blind review by an international panel and evaluated on the basis of their significance, originality, and clarity of writing. This review will be based on the full text of the submitted paper. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series available from the ACM Digital Library.

Long papers report on innovative, original, and completed research, which is relevant, significant, and interesting to the HCI community.

Short papers present ideas that are emerging and would benefit from discussion with members of the HCI community. These papers may include work-in-progress, experiences of reflective practitioners, and first drafts of novel concepts and approaches.

Workshops are half-day and full-day sessions on topics that contribute to community building around a specific HCI topic. Topics may include methods, practices, and other areas of interest and that support active participation beyond presentation.

Doctoral consortium is a full-day intensive session for research students. A panel of experienced HCI researchers provides advice and guidance.

Awards are presented to the highest quality papers and reviews.
