DESCRIPTION

Since its first edition in 1992, AVI has become an influential space for 
encounters among scholars and practitioners interested in interfaces, 
interactions, and experiences. Rooted in pioneering research on visual 
interfaces characterized by a distinctive attention to the human factor, the 
conference has evolved across the different waves of Human-Computer 
Interaction. It has addressed the pragmatic and hedonic needs of heterogeneous 
groups of users up to the current challenge of self-actualization. Creativity 
is a core behavior that leads to the realization of a person’s full potential, 
and the explosion of generative AI presents both opportunities and challenges 
to human creativity. They address fundamental issues related to agencies, 
interfaces, and ethics.

AVI 2026 will take place in San Servolo, a small island in Venice. This 
delicate and fragile ecosystem provides the ideal venue for reflecting, 
reframing, and speculating about creative solutions to more sustainable, 
inclusive and rewarding technological futures. AVI is an International 
Conference considering the nationality of participants, authors, and organizing 
committees. However, it has always taken place in Italy, thus complementing a 
strong and diverse research program with carefully selected cultural and social 
activities alongside a distinct sense of hospitality and conviviality.

The conference is held under the patronage of the Free University of 
Bozen-Bolzano and Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Italy.

We look forward to your participation in AVI 2026!
