Abstract

At CHI2014 our two day workshop "Curating the Digital: Space for Art and Interaction", led to a set of recommendations to the SIGCHI Executive for future two day workshops at CHI2015 and CHI2016, in which interactive artworks would be the focus of presentation and discussion. The Executive and the chairs of the upcoming conferences accepted these recommendations. In this proposal we set out how we will attract and select appropriate artworks for the CH2015 workshop, and how we will run the workshop to explore the themes that the art works raise. Additionally we will discuss how we will involve South Korean partners to highlight local culture and impacts of South Korean interactive artists and provide opportunities for deep cross-cultural dialogs.
