CFP: Kalamazoo, May 2006 Finding a Friendlier Front End: User Interface Design for

Electronic

Critical Editions

Abstract submission deadline: Sept. 15, 2005

This session hopes to feature both real practices and

imagined ideals

for crafting a better presentation of data in electronic

critical

editions. While some presentations may deal in part with

tools or

initiatives for developers, the focus is really on the user.

Are

there factors of layout and design that make it easier for

the user

to access complex data? What tools can we provide that

facilitate the

user's experience with an ancient text? In what ways can we

yet

exploit the new media to enhance the interaction of the

reader with a

textual tradition? What are some best practices in designing

an

interface that adequately reflects the 'mouvance' of a text?

What is

the potential functionality of an electronic critical

apparatus?

Topics need not be limited to existing technologies.

Send abstracts (include websites if appropriate) to Jesse D.
