Touchomatic: Interpersonal touch gaming in the wild
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., & Tennent, P. (2017, June). Touchomatic: Interpersonal touch gaming in the wild. Presented at 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive Systems (DIS '17), Edinburgh, UK

Direct touch between people is a key element of social behaviour. Recently a number of researchers have explored games which sense aspects of such interpersonal touch to control interaction with a multiplayer computer game. In this paper, we describe...

Grand Push Auto: a car based exertion game
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Loesche, F., Linehan, C., Johnson, D., & Martelli, B. (2015, October). Grand Push Auto: a car based exertion game. Presented at CHI PLAY '15: The annual symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play, London United Kingdom

Grand Push Auto is an exertion game in which players aim to push a full sized car to ever increasing speeds. The re-appropriation of a car as essentially a large weight allows us to create a highly portable and distributable exertion game in which th...

AR Fighter: Using HMDs to Create Vertigo Play Experiences
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Byrne, R., Marshall, J., & Mueller, F. ". (2018, October). AR Fighter: Using HMDs to Create Vertigo Play Experiences. Presented at CHI PLAY'18: 2018 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play, Melbourne, Australia

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...

Sensory Alignment in Immersive Entertainment
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Benford, S., Byrne, R., & Tennent, P. (2019, May). Sensory Alignment in Immersive Entertainment. Presented at CHI '19: CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Glasgow, Scotland, UK

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.

Abstract Machines: Overlaying Virtual Worlds on Physical Rides
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tennent, P., Marshall, J., Brundell, P., Walker, B., & Benford, S. (2019, May). Abstract Machines: Overlaying Virtual Worlds on Physical Rides. Presented at CHI '19: CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Glasgow, Scotland, UK

Overlaying virtual worlds onto existing physical rides and altering the sensations of motion can deliver new experiences of thrill, but designing how motion is mapped between physical ride and virtual world is challenging. In this paper , we present... Read More about Abstract Machines: Overlaying Virtual Worlds on Physical Rides.

Soma Design and Sensory Misalignment
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tennent, P., Marshall, J., Tsaknaki, V., Windlin, C., Höök, K., & Alfaras, M. (2020, April). Soma Design and Sensory Misalignment. Presented at 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI’20), Honolulu HI USA

We report on a workshop bringing together researchers working in soma design and sensory misalignment. Creating experiences that make use of sensory misalignment has become increasingly common, often associated with virtual reality research. However,...

Five Provocations for a More Creative TAS
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Benford, S., Hazzard, A., Vear, C., Webb, H., Chamberlain, A., Greenhalgh, C., Ramchurn, R., & Marshall, J. (2023, July). Five Provocations for a More Creative TAS. Presented at First International Symposium on Trustworthy Autonomous Systems (TAS 23), Edinburgh, UK

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.
