• The Sharply Decreasing Disruptiveness of HCI

  Zhilong Chen, Yong Li · 2025 · Proceedings of the 2025 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

  This large-scale bibliometric study by Chen and Li from Tsinghua University investigates the creativity of HCI research itself by measuring its "disruptiveness" — the degree to which a paper's contribution is recognised independently rather than merely alongside its references.…

• Painting with Cameras and Drawing with Text: AI Use in Accessible Creativity

  Cynthia L. Bennett, Renee Shelby, Negar Rostamzadeh, Shaun K. Kane · 2024 · Proceedings of the 26th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '24)

  This paper explores how disabled creatives intentionally use and choose not to use generative AI (GAI) tools in their artistic practices. Through interviews with 10 creatives with disabilities — whose work spans audio engineering, leathercraft, visual art, photography, music…

• Sketching Images Eyes-Free: A Grid-Based Dynamic Drawing Tool for the Blind

  Hesham M. Kamel, James A. Landay · 2002 · Proceedings of the Fifth International ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets 02)

  This paper presents IC2D (Integrated Communication 2 Draw), a keyboard-operated drawing tool that enables blind users to create and explore graphical images using a grid-based auditory interface. The system divides the screen into a 3x3 grid mapped to the telephone keypad…
