Last week I had the opportunity to attend the CHI conference in Denver. One of the people at the social and intellectual heart of the conference is Ben Shneiderman. Ben is one of the founding fathers of the field of human-computer interaction, or HCI. His publications, such as Designing the User Interface, are canonical at this point, and he founded one of the first HCI labs in the world at the University of Maryland. 

In this episode, Ben shares his perspective on the future of HCI and what we as researchers need to remember to get there.
