CALL FOR CHAPTERS:

Conference to be held online, live-streamed from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY on October 27, 2010.

GLIDE is a biennial, virtual conference that disseminates cutting-edge research on topics related to interaction between designers and global communities. The purpose of a virtual format is to bridge cultural and geographic divides in an eco-friendly way.

The theme of GLIDE'10 is the facilitation, consequences, and challenges of cross-cultural collaboration—like participatory or user-/human-centered design—with indigenous and underserved communities and the effect of such on human/user experience.
