	abstract = {The research and development of signing avatars has become widely publicised with the promise to provide novel, efcient and accessible solutions to existing access issues deaf people face in their everyday lives. However, the deaf community is often lukewarm in their enthusiasm for signing avatars. There are deep structural issues present in this technology due to the systematic underestimation of the complexity entailed in sign languages, but also the quality of solutions and lack of direct participation of deaf communities. In my research, I explore the particular interrelationship between the deaf community and technical stakeholders regarding signing avatar technologies to analyse the gaps between community positions and technical realisation – particularly from a HumanComputer Interaction (HCI) perspective. My results indicate that signing avatar require more nuanced conceptualisations to properly identify adequate contexts for implementation and use that are acceptable to and accepted by the deaf community.},
