Inner disturbance: towards understanding the design of vertigo games through a novel balancing game (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ‘. Inner disturbance: towards understanding the design of vertigo games through a novel balancing game. Presented at 28th Australian Conference on Computer-Human Interaction (OzCHI '16)

The design space of vertigo games is under-explored, despite vertigo underlying many unique body based game experiences, such as rock climbing and dancing. In this paper we articulate the design and evaluation of a novel vertigo experience, Inner Dis...

Balance ninja: towards the design of digital vertigo games via galvanic vestibular stimulation (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ‘. Balance ninja: towards the design of digital vertigo games via galvanic vestibular stimulation. Presented at CHI Play 2016: 2016 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play

Vertigo – the momentary disruption of the stability of perception – is an intriguing game element that underlies many unique play experiences, such as spinning in circles as children to rock climbing as adults, yet vertigo is relatively unexplored wh...

Interaction in Motion: Designing Truly Mobile Interaction (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mueller, F., Mueller, F., Marshall, J., Dancu, A., & Mueller, F. ‘. (2016, June). Interaction in Motion: Designing Truly Mobile Interaction. Presented at DIS '16: Designing Interactive Systems Conference 2016, Brisbane, QLD, Australia

The use of technology while being mobile now takes place in many areas of people's lives in a wide range of scenarios, for example users cycle, climb, run and even swim while interacting with devices. Conflict between locomotion and system use can re... Read More about Interaction in Motion: Designing Truly Mobile Interaction.

Jogging at CHI (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mueller, F. ‘., Marshall, J., Khot, R. A., Nylander, S., & Tholander, J. Jogging at CHI. Presented at CHI 2016: SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

HCI is increasingly paying attention to sports, and more and more CHI attendees are aiming to maintain being physically active while attending CHI. In response, we offer a SIG on the topic of sports-HCI and conduct it in a sportive way: we will go ou... Read More about Jogging at CHI.

Designing brutal multiplayer video games (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., & Hazzard, A. Designing brutal multiplayer video games. Presented at 2016 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2016

Non-digital forms of play that allow players to direct brute force directly upon each other, such as martial arts, boxing and full contact team sports,are very popular. However, inter-player brutality has largely been unexplored as a fe... Read More about Designing brutal multiplayer video games.

Interpersonal touch as a game interaction method (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Tennent, P., & Hazzard, A. Interpersonal touch as a game interaction method. Presented at Proxemic Mobile Collocated Interactions Workshop at ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2016

Interpersonal touch is a key element of social behaviour, yet is largely ignored in HCI. In this paper, we describe two games which explore two extremes of interpersonal touch, and discuss key research questions relating to them.

Expanding exertion gaming (2016)
Journal Article
Marshall, J., Mueller, F. ‘., Benford, S., & Pijnappel, S. (in press). Expanding exertion gaming. International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 90, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhcs.2016.02.003

While exertion games - digital games where the outcome is determined by physical exertion - are of growing interest in HCI, we believe the current health and fitness focus in the research of exertion games limits the opportunities this field has to o... Read More about Expanding exertion gaming.

Designing the vertigo experience: vertigo as a design resource for digital bodily play (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ‘. (2016, February). Designing the vertigo experience: vertigo as a design resource for digital bodily play. Presented at TEI '16: Tenth International Conference on Tangible Embedded and Embodied Interaction, New York, USA

Vertigo can be described as an attempt to momentarily destroy the stability of perception and inflict a kind of voluptuous panic upon an otherwise lucid mind. Vertigo has, however, not been generally considered as a design resource and we believe it... Read More about Designing the vertigo experience: vertigo as a design resource for digital bodily play.
