Abstract

This workshop invites the CSCW community to explore hybrid events - large collocated events where technology is used to support audience participation. We argue that the technology landscape has changed since the early studies in CSCW towards this context. Therefore, the research foci must similarly change and focus on studying the practices or propose alternative and novel interfaces. This workshop helps the CSCW community to consider the research agenda for the next generation of hybrid event studies. We do this by discussing the open conceptual, empirical and constructive research problems in this domain. Together with the organizers and participants, we seek to develop a research agenda and seek opportunities for further collaboration on the topic of hybrid events.
