Presentation / Conference Contribution
Benford, S., Hazzard, A., Vear, C., Webb, H., Chamberlain, A., Greenhalgh, C., …Marshall, J. (2023). Five Provocations for a More Creative TAS. 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
Benford, S., Ramchurn, R., Marshall, J., Wilson, M. L., Pike, M., Martindale, S., …Walker, B. (2021). Contesting control: journeys through surrender, self-awareness and looseness of control in embodied interaction. Human-Computer Interaction, 36(5-6), 361-389. https://doi.org/10.1080/07370024.2020.1754214

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...

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)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
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)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
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.

Inner disturbance: towards understanding the design of vertigo games through a novel balancing game (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
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...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ‘. (2016). Balance ninja: towards the design of digital vertigo games via galvanic vestibular stimulation.

Vertigo – the momentary disruption of the stability of perception – is an intriguing game element that underlies many unique play experiences, such as spinning in circles as children to rock climbing as adults, yet vertigo is relatively unexplored wh...

HCI is increasingly paying attention to sports, and more and more CHI attendees are aiming to maintain being physically active while attending CHI. In response, we offer a SIG on the topic of sports-HCI and conduct it in a sportive way: we will go ou... Read More about Jogging at CHI.

Interpersonal touch as a game interaction method (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Tennent, P., & Hazzard, A. (2016). Interpersonal touch as a game interaction method.

Interpersonal touch is a key element of social behaviour, yet is largely ignored in HCI. In this paper, we describe two games which explore two extremes of interpersonal touch, and discuss key research questions relating to them.

Vertigo can be described as an attempt to momentarily destroy the stability of perception and inflict a kind of voluptuous panic upon an otherwise lucid mind. Vertigo has, however, not been generally considered as a design resource and we believe it... Read More about Designing the vertigo experience: vertigo as a design resource for digital bodily play.
