Abstract

This agenda-setting workshop will bring together HCI researchers and designers with colleagues from sociology, media, and communications to generate an interdisciplinary research agenda for digital communication beyond human-centric replication. It argues that the dominance of a human-centric replication paradigm in digital communication is problematic, constraining, limits digital innovation, and continues to unquestionably place humans at the center of digital futures with negative social implications for modes of digital communication and how we relate to one another. This workshop will explore and foster alternative visions of digital communication, drawing inspiration from animal and plant sensory worlds (through inspirational talks, hands-on-activities, discussion) to generate ideas towards a new way of thinking and working in sensorial immersion beyond the human-centric. We will address key research opportunities and challenges and build the foundations for a road-map for this novel area of research.
