Exploring opportunities to facilitate serendipity in search (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rahman, M. A., & Wilson, M. L. Exploring opportunities to facilitate serendipity in search. Presented at 38th International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval

Serendipitously discovering new information can bring many benefits. Although we can design systems to highlight serendipitous information, serendipity cannot be easily orchestrated and is thus hard to study. In this paper, we deployed a working sear...

#Scanners: integrating physiology into cinematic experiences (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pike, M., Ramchurn, R., & Wilson, M. L. #Scanners: integrating physiology into cinematic experiences. Presented at 2015 ACM SIGCHI Conference on Creativity and Cognition

In this paper we present #Scanners, a digital arts installation that aims to bridge the gap between digital arts and neuroscience. #Scanners is an experience in which an individual wears a wireless brain scanners whilst being presented media which is...

Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Flintham, M. D., Velt, R., Wilson, M. L., Anstead, E. J., Benford, S., Brown, A., Pearce, T., Price, D., & Sprinks, J. (2015, April). Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators. Presented at Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Seoul, Republic of Korea

There has been a massive growth in the number of people who film and upload amateur footage of events to services such as Facebook and Youtube, or even stream live to services such as LiveStream. We present an exploratory study that investigates the... Read More about Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators.

Examining the reliability of using fNIRS in realistic HCI settings for spatial and verbal tasks (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maior, H. A., Pike, M., Sharples, S., & Wilson, M. L. Examining the reliability of using fNIRS in realistic HCI settings for spatial and verbal tasks. Presented at CHI 2015: Crossings

Recent efforts have shown that functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) has potential value for brain sensing in HCI user studies. Research has shown that, although large head movement significantly affects fNIRS data, typical keyboard use, mous...

Two-way Affect Loops in multimedia experiences (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pike, M., Ramchurn, R., & Wilson, M. L. Two-way Affect Loops in multimedia experiences. Presented at British HCI 2015

A users interaction with a film typically involves a One Way Affect (1WA), in which the film being consumed has an affect on the consumer. Recent advances in physiological monitoring technology however has facilitated the notion of a Two Way Affect L... Read More about Two-way Affect Loops in multimedia experiences.
