If you're working on CHI, I encourage you to go to DGP so you have company! Paper swaps for even 15-30 mins can sometimes be more valuable than 60 mins writing.

We will be addressing the HotMess via speculative life, black utopias, and the break down of our technical systems. We will discuss and think through together the significance of breakdown but also the opportunity for improvisation and creativity in science, tech, and new media fields. The “Monday Night Seminar” carries on the tradition of Marshall McLuhan's public seminars at the University of Toronto. All seminars take place within the same intimate Coach House setting where McLuhan once held court. In this up-close and personal environment, a range of thinkers – academics, activists, scientists, artists, designers and planners – will explore digital culture from a feminist perspective. The Monday Night Seminars are designed to challenge prevailing cultural notions about technology and provoke new insight on the possibilities for a more equitable technological futu www.eventbrite.ca Sarah Sharma Associate Professor, University of Toronto Director of the McLuhan Centre for Culture and Technology --Institute of Communication, Culture, Information and Technology (UTM) --Faculty of Information (St. George) Website: sarahsharma.com

Is there a system for people (especially students) to have discussions with each other about CHI papers?
by Joseph Jay Williams 06 Sep '19

Is there a system for people (especially students) to have discussions with each other about CHI papers? e.g. could I get a volunteer or two to put together a Google Sheet or Gdoc where we can all list who is working on what, and what kinds of input or discussion might be useful? Even if sections aren't written yet, lots of useful knowledge you can all share!
