Abstract
The 2022 CHCCS Achievement Award from the Canadian Human Computer Communications Society is presented to Professor Pourang Irani (UBC Okanagan) for his impact to the field of human-computer interaction. His research interests sit at the cross-section of MobileHCI and Information Visualization, and lately include the design and evaluation of in-situ user interfacese for improve sense-making. CHCCS invites a publication by the award winner to be included in the proceedings, and this year we continue the tradition of an interview format rather than a formal paper. This permits a casual discussion of the research areas, insights, and contributions of the award winner. What follows is an edited transcript of a conversation between Pourang Irani and Xing-Dong (Associate Professor at Simon Fraser University) that took place on April 20th, 2022.
