In TAS ‘23: Proceedings of The First International Symposium on Trustworthy Autonomous Systems 11-12 July 2023 Edinburgh, UK. https://doi.org/10.1145/3597512.3599709

Conventional wisdom has it that trustworthy autonomous systems (AS) should be explainable, dependable, controllable and safe tools for humans to use. Reflecting on a portfolio of artistic applications of TAS leads us adopt an alternative stance and t... Read More about Five Provocations for a More Creative TAS.

Contesting control: journeys through surrender, self-awareness and looseness of control in embodied interaction (2020)
Journal Article

As Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) engages with technologies that sense and actuate the body, there is a need to reconsider the human bodily experience. We present three case studies that each involve different forms of bodily experience: a breath-c...

Sensory Alignment in Immersive Entertainment (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Marshall, J., Benford, S., Byrne, R., & Tennent, P. (2019). Sensory Alignment in Immersive Entertainment. In CHI '19 Proceedings of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. https://doi.org/10.1145/3290605.3300930

When we use digital systems to stimulate the senses, we typically stimulate only a subset of users' senses, leaving other senses stimulated by the physical world. This creates potential for misalignment between senses, where digital and physical stim... Read More about Sensory Alignment in Immersive Entertainment.

AR Fighter: Using HMDs to Create Vertigo Play Experiences (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Game designers working with Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) are usually advised to avoid causing disorientation in players. However, we argue that disorientation is a key element of what makes “vertigo play” (such as spinning in circles until dizzy, bal...

For many of us, the notion of ‘fun’ conjures up visions of experiences that are amusing, pleasant, entertaining, playful—perhaps even frivolous. Rides, games, shows and perhaps even the experience of visiting an art gallery can embody these senses of... Read More about Discomfort—the dark side of fun.

A little respect: four case studies of HCI’s disregard for other disciplines (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Spence, J., & Rennick-Egglestone, S. (2017). A little respect: four case studies of HCI’s disregard for other disciplines.

HCI research often demonstrates lack of respect for other disciplines, evidenced by the way work from those disciplines are cited in CHI papers. We present 4 case studies that demonstrate; 1) that HCI researchers sometimes misunderstand and misrepres...

Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Spence, J., & Rennick-Egglestone, S. (2017). Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research.

In CHI papers, citation of previous work is typically a shallow, throwaway action that demonstrates little critical engagement with the work cited. We present a citation context analysis of over 3000 citations from 69 papers at CHI2016, which demonst... Read More about Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research.

The prevailing goal of “exergames” research towards ameliorating obesity appears to... Read More about Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature.

Inner disturbance: towards understanding the design of vertigo games through a novel balancing game (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ‘. (2016). Inner disturbance: towards understanding the design of vertigo games through a novel balancing game.

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...
