Abstract

HCI researchers are increasingly producing outcomes that extend beyond academic papers - such as video and audio documentaries, zines, exhibitions, podcasts, DIY tutorials and many more. These Alternative Research Outcomes (AROs) open up new ways of communicating research insights, situate knowledge in specific contexts, and engage audiences outside of academic circles. While research work has positioned AROs as an emerging area of interest, open questions remain on ethics, ownership, evaluation and positionality. Our meet-up invites researchers, designers and practitioners who are interested in exploring alternative endpoints of HCI research. Rather than defining a single path forward, the meet-up serves as a collaborative space to share experiences, discuss challenges, and imagine how AROs might take shape in the future academic ecosystem. Attendees will leave with new connections, practical ideas, and a clearer sense of how alternative endpoints can strengthen the impact of their research.
