🚨Time is running out to register for our #ICA25 #HMC Pre-Conference on June 12th!
All Pre-con attendees will receive a surprise gift! Registration closes Friday, May 23rd! www.icahdq.org/event/HMC
International Communication Association
Building on the spirit that launched HMC—the drive to explore uncharted spaces where human communication with machines occurs—the 8th HMC Pre-Conference aims to facilitate dialogues about the disruptive potential and consolidating force of machines in communication research, while reflecting on how HMC itself is shaped by these dynamics. For this pre-conference, we define "disruption" as significant changes in understanding, experience, or practice, and "consolidation" as uniting ideas into a new whole as well as strengthening or solidifying them.

AI-generated images of famous moments in human-machine interaction.. including the Aida Lovelace, first computer programmer; the tin man from Wizard of Oz, the scribe automaton built in 1770s, and I really wish we could offload this to AI...

Dr. Ernesto de León suggests not to get too bogged down in explaining theory and literature. Also, use highlight tools like circling important findings and include a brief takeaway on slides with data @ernesto-deleon.com

Thanks to our speakers today for their great tips on conference presentations! See 🧵 for highlights!
Dr. Jesse Fox @commfox.bsky.social cautions against overuse of nostalgia and movement! Dancing squirrels are cute, but save them for smaller screens! 😄
