<P><SPAN lang=en-gb><B><FONT face="Times New Roman">Call for
papers</FONT></B></SPAN> <BR><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT face="Times New Roman">We
invite position papers for the CHI 2006 Workshop “Designing for Collective
Remembering”. While much research has focused on capturing and sharing personal
memories, less work addresses collective memories and their remembrance.
When memories relate to significant events impacting on an entire group or
community and are shared amongst that group, they become collective. Such
memories are usually rich, emotionally charged, better recalled by groups and
enhance the group’s sense of identity. In fact, the mere fact of sharing
individual memories can alter the initial emotional print that an individual
holds before his/her memories become collective.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT face="Times New Roman">This one day workshop will
offer an interdisciplinary forum of discussion for both practitioners interested
in designing technology for collective remembering and academics researching in
fields such as design, HCI, computer science, sociology, anthropology and
information science. The workshop</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us> <FONT
face="Times New Roman">will facilitate discussions aimed at the development of a
set of guidelines for designing systems for collective
remembering:</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-gb> <FONT
face="Times New Roman">collecting, storing and sharing
memories</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT face="Times New Roman">. This
includes designing for the experience of sharing one’s own memories, and for the
experience of enjoying others’ memories. </FONT></SPAN></P>
