Insights Into Legacy: Issues of Handover from a Partner-Initiated Project (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Thorn, E., Spence, J., Koleva, B., & Benford, S. D. (2024). Insights Into Legacy: Issues of Handover from a Partner-Initiated Project. In CHI '24: Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. https://doi.org/10.1145/3613904.3642620

We report on a six-year collaboration with a small community organisation to develop and deploy a permanent physical / digital locative media experience as part on an ongoing community regeneration project. We describe how this unfolded over four pha... Read More about Insights Into Legacy: Issues of Handover from a Partner-Initiated Project.

Customizing hybrid products (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Benford, S., Koleva, B., Preston, W., Angus, A., Thorn, E., & Glover, K. (2018). Customizing hybrid products. In CHI '18 Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1–12). https://doi.org/10.1145/3173574.3173604

We explore how the convergence of the digital and physical into hybrid products leads to new possibilities for customization. We report on a technology probe, a hybrid advent calendar with both paper form and digital layers of content, both of which... Read More about Customizing hybrid products.

Enabling hand-crafted visual markers at scale (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Preston, W., Benford, S., Thorn, E., Koleva, B., Rennick-Egglestone, S., Mortier, R., …Worboys, M. (2017). Enabling hand-crafted visual markers at scale. . https://doi.org/10.1145/3064663.3064746

As locative media and augmented reality spread into the everyday world so it becomes important to create aesthetic visual markers at scale. We explore a designer-centred approach in which skilled designers handcraft seed designs that are automaticall... Read More about Enabling hand-crafted visual markers at scale.

Exploring large-scale interactive public illustrations (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Thorn, E., Rennick-Egglestone, S., Koleva, B., Preston, W., Benford, S., Quinn, A., & Mortier, R. (2016). Exploring large-scale interactive public illustrations. . https://doi.org/10.1145/2901790.2901826

We present a research-through-design exploration of transforming large-scale public illustrations into interactive media. We collaborated with creative practitioners to extend an existing visual marker technology to support spatial and layered inter...
