The focus of this magazine is on the relationships, dialogues and connections that exist between people, technology and experiences. As such, submissions should have a solid grounding in these contexts. Additionally, as the majority readership of this magazine is practitioners, we are explicitly seeking content that has professional relevance. If you are considering submitting academic and government research projects, please frame these in a way that has practical significance; consider that interactions is a magazine and not a journal or scientific publication.

Submissions can take the form of either completed works or proposals for future writing. While our publishing process has a copy editing stage, we do ask that your work is self-edited for grammar and spelling prior to submission, and that you consider the international scope of the readership as you structure your submissions. Additionally, please consider how visuals can support and enhance your work.

While much of the work that is published in interactions has a digital component, we are explicitly not interested in descriptions of technology that are void of a human and cultural context. If you are interested in publishing work that relates to a technological advancement or a particular interface development, please ground this firmly in the reality of humanity and society.

Once your work has been received, it will be reviewed internally by the editorial team. If the work is accepted for publishing, it will be assigned an appropriate editor who will work with you to refine the content to be appropriate for the given size and context in which it will ultimately be published. This editor will help you revise the work, develop a theme for imagery, and articulate various deadlines and requirements.

In submitting your work, please adhere to these guidelines:

• Submit your work in Microsoft Word 2003 as a .doc file (not a .docx).
• Include a citations section at the end of the document; please minimize the amount of citations used, as we prefer no more than four citations
• Include a 100-200 word biography of each author at the end of your document.

Each submission should include imagery that supports and enhances the copy that you are including. Consider how photographs can be used to persuade and communicate, and please try to include a wide variety of artwork with your selection (understanding that only some of it will ultimately be used in publication). In submitting imagery, please adhere to these guidelines:

• Include any relevant imagery in a .zip file as .TIFF images.
• Include a high resolution, professional photograph of each author as a .TIFF file.
• Save each .TIFF image at 600dpi.
• Ensure that you have the legal rights and permissions to publish any images that you provide.
• Please do not upsample imagery. Upsampling is the process of saving a file at a higher resolution, and will result in photographs of such a poor quality that they cannot be used for publication.

When you publish material in interactions, you must sign either a copyright release form or a copyright transfer form. ACM's managing editor will contact authors about this prior to publication.

You need to have permission to use any third party material in your document, such as images and photographs. Please ensure that you have appropriately and legally sourced all assets used in your work.

• To submit your work for consideration, please email it to us.
• Please allow for as much as three months lead time for time-sensitive articles.
• To submit books, magazines, movies or other media for review in our (P)review section, please physically mail them to:
