Cooking for pleasure (2013)
Book Chapter
Crabtree, A., Tolmie, P., & Rouncefield, M. (2013). Cooking for pleasure. In P. Tolmie, & M. Rouncefield (Eds.), Ethnomethodology at play

Cooking is a mundane feature of everyday life, done by people around the world as a matter of necessity and, for some at least, as the business of pleasure. It seems surprising therefore that food, eating and cooking has, at least until relatively re... Read More about Cooking for pleasure.

"How many bloody examples do you want?" - fieldwork and generalisation (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Crabtree, A., Tolmie, P., & Rouncefield, M. (2013, September). "How many bloody examples do you want?" - fieldwork and generalisation. Presented at ECSCW 2013: Proceedings of the 13th European Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work, 21-25 September 2013, Paphos, Cyprus, Paphos, Cyprus

The title of this paper comes from comments made by an ‘angry’ ethnographer during a debriefing session. It reflects his frustration with a certain analytic mentality that would have him justify his observations in terms of the number of times he had...

Exploring reactions to widespread energy monitoring (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Colley, J. A., Bedwell, B., Crabtree, A., & Rodden, T. (2013, September). Exploring reactions to widespread energy monitoring. Presented at 14th IFIP Conference on Human-Computer Interaction-INERACT 2013, Cape Town, South Africa

This paper explores the measurement, apportionment and representation of widespread energy monitoring. We explicate the accountability to users of the data collected by this type of monitoring when it is presented to them as a single daylong picture....

Issues and understandings for rural HCI systems development: Agile approaches "In the wild" (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davies, M., Chamberlain, A., & Crabtree, A. (2013, July). Issues and understandings for rural HCI systems development: Agile approaches "In the wild". Presented at HCI International 2013, Las Vegas, NV, USA

HCI system design has largely been focused towards urban areas, the technology and the infrastructure of such environments. Researchers are often unaware of the local, real-word context and the restraints that this can have upon the both the interact...
