Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research into sustainability has been a hot topic for around 10 years. During this time notions of an Anthropocene have propagated throughout research communities - centralizing humankind’s agency in environmental degradation.
Many CHI and other workshops have wrestled with the complexities, paradoxes and politics of this often-contentious field of enquiry. However, HCI is also a solution-focused field, so this workshop seeks to understand ways that HCI can be ‘re-made’ a sustainable
practice and perspective. Recent workshops have called for the sustainable HCI community to draw on insights from fields outside of traditional HCI to move the research forward. Thus, this workshop looks to the solution-focused design practice and philosophy
of Permaculture as an approach to addressing sustainability - focusing on its design principles and ethics. Patrick Whitefield defines Permaculture as “ a design system for human habitats which work with nature rather than against it. It is modeled on natural
systems, and makes use of both traditional and modern science.”<br>
<br>
This workshop invites the submission of position papers, and the presentation of (10 min max) position statements. Each position paper should be submitted to Callum Egan (<span class="MsoHyperlink">callum.egan@napier.ac.uk</span>) as a single PDF file, not
longer than two pages in length, and containing a description of one of the following:<br style="">

approaches, which juxtapose quantitative measures of demand and impact, and qualitative/quantitative data from everyday life (e.g. room occupancy, appliance times-of-use, routines of practice, and social meanings and expectations). Specific empirical sites
have included cooking, thermal comfort and digital media and entertainment. With Lisa Nathan, Mike is co-editing an upcoming Routledge volume entitled

has returned to teaching courses and restarted a North Hardy Plant Nursery specifically designed to support Forest Gardeners.
