From Director's Cut to User's Cut: to Watch a Brain-Controlled Film is to Edit it
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramchurn, R., Martindale, S., Wilson, M. L., & Benford, S. (2019, May). From Director's Cut to User's Cut: to Watch a Brain-Controlled Film is to Edit it. Presented at CHI '19: CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Glasgow, Scotland, UK

© 2019 Copyright held by the owner/author(s). Introducing interactivity to films has proven a longstanding and difficult challenge due to their narrative-driven, linear and theatre-based nature. Previous research has suggested that Brain-Computer Int... Read More about From Director's Cut to User's Cut: to Watch a Brain-Controlled Film is to Edit it.
