Keynote Announced + Sept 30 Discussion Abstract Deadline for IEEE VIS 2025 MERCADO Workshop on Multimodal Experiences for Remote Communication Around Data Online - Nov 2 in Vienna

📣  We are excited to introduce Hilda Tellioğlu<https://hildatellioglu.com/> from Technische Universität Wien as the keynote speaker of the MERCADO workshop at IEEE VIS 2025  in Vienna! 📊

Dr. Tellioğlu is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Visual Computing & Human-Centered Technology at TU Wien. She is the director of the Center for Technology & Society, the Austrian representative in IFIP TC9, and chair of the EUSSET Steering Committee. We are looking forward to learn from her on “Shaping Tomorrow’s Collaboration Through Design” — join us on November 2nd 2:00 PM https://sites.google.com/view/mercadoworkshop/vis2025

Keynote abstract: The keynote will draw upon research from CSCW, HCI, and groupware to outline why practice-based approaches are vital to deriving useful user experience. After an introductory conceptual discussion of these fields, particular attention will be given to awareness as an important design principle and related concepts such as artifacts, affordances, and technology supporting cooperation and design. These introductory remarks will form the basis upon which to outline further how we can understand and design environments to work collaboratively in a better way. On this basis, further discussion will move to life-centred and practice-oriented design processes grounded in methods aligned towards artifacts. Considering how design practices evolve in real-world contexts, the keynote will outline directions towards systemization for further multimodal experience in collaborative contexts. Final reflections will outline visions and projections to the future by considering how new multimodalities can transform the modes through which people collaborate, learn, and create together.
