DUX 2007
Many have asked us for information about the next DUX conference.
ACM SIGGRAPH, AIGA, and ACM SIGCHI have a joint sponsorship agreement in place that extends over the first three offerings of the DUX conference. According to that agreement, the first three offerings will occur every other year.
The first DUX conference was DUX 2003; the second -- DUX 2005; that makes the third: DUX 2007.
The organizations revisit this agreement regularly. But as of now, to the best of our knowledge, the same three organizations will jointly sponsor the next DUX conference, and it will be held sometime during 2007. (Location to be determined.)
Contact us if you have opinions about this and/or have interest in being a part of the development of the next DUX conference.

Conference scores highly on evaluation forms
Median assessments of the quality of the two plenaries and of all sessions featuring peer-reviewed submissions were either "good" or "excellent," the two highest ratings of the 5-point scale used on the evaluation forms. The website and blog, conference venue, printed program and CD, food, studio tours, exhibits, and receptions were also highly rated. Tutorials rated especially highly.
The vast majority of attendees reported that, overall, the conference had met or exceeded their goals.
Evaluation form return rate: ~40% of conference forms; ~75% of tutorial forms.
Thanks to everyone who completed the evaluation forms. We are still reading through your many written comments!
