[Liza Potts]

Hi AOIR,

Reminder! 

Michael Salvo and I are pleased to invite you to contribute to our collection Rhetoric and Experience Architecture. We welcome proposals from academic researchers and industry practitioners. Please feel free to contact us about this book project.

We will both be at CPTSC and SIGDOC this year, and we are happy to meet with you to discuss your proposal!

CFP: Rhetoric and Experience Architecture

Experience architecture (XA) is an emerging area of study focused on the research and practice of creating technologies, products, policies, and services that serve the needs of various participants. Situated in the Humanities and Social Sciences, XA focuses onissues addressing usability, interaction design, service design, user experience, information architecture and content management for websites, mobile apps, software applications, and technology services.

This collection will focus on the research, theory, and practice of creating compelling experiences across digital and physical spaces based on the foundation of rhetoric. This edited collection will consist of an editors’ introduction and three sections. The first section contains eight to twelve chapters that define field connections between rhetoric and experience architecture. The second section is formed by eight to twelve chapters focused on research methodology. The third section includes eight to twelve short vision statements, modeled after the NEH white paper genre, which offer several paths for exploring interdisciplinary trajectories between rhetorical studies and experience architecture.
