The MMPA is pleased to confirm that over 70 attendees signed the attendance register on both days of the conference. The themes for each day of the conference were stimulating and it is with no surprise that the feedback from members was overwhelming. It was described by most as a vibrant conference in both the academic and entertainment spheres. The programme included presentations that covered both technical and ethical topics, and allowed for robust engagements between presenters, panelists and attendees.

Appearing for the first time at CHI '86 were interactive poster sessions. The format, which CHI + GI 1987 will repeat, provided for active exchanges between presenters and listeners. Presenters had display space for posters or similar media and were encouraged to prepare handouts. Presentations on topic areas were grouped together. The audience was encouraged to participate in interactive discussions about the presentations. The conference proceedings did not include poster session abstracts. At the conference, the Bulletin editor and I discussed the possibility of publishing abstracts; subsequently, each poster session presenter was offered the opportunity to prepare a summary. What follows are the submitted poster session abstracts. More will appear in the next issue.

First time attendees at the annual SIGGRAPH conference account for more than 40% of attendees. We have begun to investigate ways to better accommodate first time attendees, and improve overall attendee experience. This panel represents an augmentation of a BOF (Birds of a Feather) session delivered at SIGGRAPH 2014 to assist (first time) attendees navigate the conference, and conference space. The special (BOF) session was entitled "Ready, Steady, SIGGRAPH", which was open to all attendees but of particular interest to first time attendees. This year we are extending the BOF to a panel to include program chairs from each venue and representatives from conference management.

The interactive poster sessions at the annual CHI conferences are one of the outlets that CHI provides for researchers to present work that, for a variety of reasons, does not fit the constraints of the technical paper sessions. The poster format offers presenters a forum in which to meet and discuss their work with others interested in the same topic. It is particularly suited for work in the formative stages and for descriptions of systems with novel interface features, but a wide variety of research results have been presented in this format. Presenters find the opportunity to interact with their audience to be a very useful and rewarding aspect of the session. They invariably come away with a list of conference attendees interested in closely related topics.This year the poster arrangements were somewhat different from previous CHIs, in keeping with the many innovative aspects of this "wild and woolly Texas" CHI. Forty-seven poster presentations were scattered among four of the lobby levels of the University of Texas Performing Arts Center, where the conference plenary sessions were held. Conference attendees got to view the posters and interact with the presenters before the opening plenary on Monday night, May 1, during the Mexican Fiesta later than evening, and during the Western Barbecue after the Tuesday plenaries. Traffic in the poster area was particularly heavy during the initial showing, but presenters and attendees had opportunities for more extended interactions during the two receptions.The posters were grouped into nine topic areas: analysis/evaluation, analytic models, design of user interfaces, empirical studies of programmers, information retrieval, I/O technologies, learning social impacts of computers, and user interface tools. Presenters came from Canada, England, Germany, and Japan, as well as the United States. Slightly more than half of the posters (25) came from universities, with seven of those being participants in the doctoral consortium which was held in conjunction with the conference.Abstracts submitted for the poster session were reviewed by a panel of judges which included: James Alexander, US West; Nathaniel Borenstein, CMU; Wayne Gray, NYNEX; John Karat, IBM; Jean McKendree, MCC; and Robert Vallone, Ashton-Tate.Abstracts and papers printed here represent the second of two installments. The first appeared in the July 1989 SIGCHI Bulletin.
