2ND CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS The Workshop on the Boat Digital Tools for Connecting with Blue Spaces A workshop held at AVI 2026 Conference in Venice https://wontheboat.altervista.org Important Dates Submission deadline: March 29th, 2026 Notification of acceptance: April 10th, 2026 Workshop: June 9, 2026 Submission form: https://forms.gle/VxTR1vDR8UcXAYS8A A full-day workshop held on a boat in the Venice Lagoon, exploring the connection with natural spaces, a theme of great interest not only for improving the awareness about the importance of natural spaces that surround us, but also for their demonstrated benefits for physical and mental health. Digital tools can play an important role in fostering connection with natural spaces by informing, stimulating, or facilitating immersive experiences. The journey will be an opportunity to discuss these issues and explore the related design space through activities inspired by the most naturalistic part of the Venice Lagoon. The field trip will be supported by a marine ecologist who will introduce you to the aquatic environment and its connections with humans and other living beings inhabiting the Lagoon, to inspire your work. The workshop is organized as a full-day activity, hosted on a hybrid boat that will depart from San Servolo (the AVI 2026 conference site https://www.unive.it/avi2026) in the morning and travel in the North Lagoon. The return to San Servolo is scheduled for the afternoon. Seats are limited!
