POSTER PAPERS

The AVI 2026 Poster Track is dedicated to showcasing work-in-progress that
pushes the boundaries of Advanced Visual Interfaces and Human-Computer
Interaction.

We especially welcome posters that explore creativity through a critical
lens, addressing its complex dimensions of agency, interfaces, and ethics.

This track offers a valuable opportunity to obtain precious feedback from
peers and experts in an engaging, informal setting. Submissions must
describe original (though not yet fully completed) research.

See AVI 2026 themes and topics: https://www.unive.it/web/en/16532/topics

INTERACTIVE EXPERIENCES AND DEMO PAPERS

The interactive experiences and demo track is intended to provide a forum
to showcase interactive installations, innovative implementations, systems,
and technologies demonstrating new ideas about creativity, in relation to
AVI themes and topics, and reaching out to novel communities.

Interactive experiences are expected primarily from musicians, designers
and artists.


Demo submissions should be more technical, typically originating from
Computer Engineering or Computer Science fields.

**Important note to authors about ACM’s new open access publishing model**

ACM has introduced a new open access publishing model for the ICPS Series.
Authors based at institutions that are not yet part of the ACM Open program
and do not qualify for a full geographic waiver will be required to pay an
article processing charge (APC) to publish their ICPS article in the ACM
Digital Library. To determine whether or not an APC will be applicable to
your article, please follow the detailed guidance here:
https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/author-guidance.

Further information may be found on the ACM website, as follows:

Full details of the new ICPS publishing model:
