Mensch und Computer (Human and Computer) Conference 2020

Veronika Weiß and Victoria Batz from the SPiRIT Team have the opportunity to participate in the organizing committee of the HCI Conference “Mensch und Computer” (Human and Computer) under the title Digital Change in the Flow of Time. They will take over the Demo Chairs. Originally, Magdeburg was chosen as the location for the MuC 2020 and the organizers have been looking forward to the event in autumn. The MuC is now taking place digitally. Nevertheless, it is still a great chance to help shaping this virtual conference.

The exhibits will be presented online on the MuC website during the conference period from September 6th to 9th. The exhibitors will demonstrate their prototypes with a video and a concept description. During the demo session, the submission will be demonstrated and explained live. The live sessions serve as a platform for professional exchange and visitors have the opportunity to ask questions directly to the exhibitors. As a prelude there will be a demo slam – all submissions will be presented in short form to give an overview to those interested.

The implementation effort, original & outstanding ideas as well as technical & social innovations are to be honored in particular. The best submissions will be rewarded with a demo award. Veronika and Victoria are looking forward to many exciting projects and their selection. There is still time until 19th June.
