Cool aX (across) Continents, Cultures and Communities, CHI2012

Austin, texas

Workshop website: http://www.chici.org/cool2012

Cool is perhaps the most coveted goal of design while also being the least well understood and most elusive. This workshop builds upon previous work by the authors in understanding and designing for cool. Current literature and work on cool predominantly focuses on specific demographics of society without exploring its broader application. This workshop aims to explore and discuss the notion of cool and how it crosses the boundaries of continents, cultures and communities. This workshop aims to gather a deeper understanding of the different facets and contexts of cool, and whether cool as a concept can be globally defined

Workshop Submissions

We are inviting contributions in the following areas:

  • theoretical understanding of cool
  • cool products
  • exploration of non-cool
  • design and evaluation of cool things
  • cultural differences within cool
  • cool in non-UK contexts
  • cool for old people
  • cool for people who really aren't cool
