Posture, movement, and aircraft passengers: An investigation into factors influencing in-flight discomfort (2020)
Journal Article
Sharafkhani, M., Argyle, E., Cobb, S., & Tennent, P. (2021). Posture, movement, and aircraft passengers: An investigation into factors influencing in-flight discomfort. WORK, 68(s1), S183-S195. https://doi.org/10.3233/wor-208016

BACKGROUND: Aircraft passengers’ physical activity levels are often limited during flight for extended periods of time, which can have serious impact on health, comfort, and passenger experience. However, several factors, such as limited personal spa... Read More about Posture, movement, and aircraft passengers: An investigation into factors influencing in-flight discomfort.

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...

Thresholds: Embedding Virtual Reality in the Museum (2020)
Journal Article
Tennent, P., Martindale, S., Benford, S., Darzentas, D., Brundell, P., & Collishaw, M. (2020). Thresholds: Embedding Virtual Reality in the Museum. Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage, 13(2), Article 12. https://doi.org/10.1145/3369394

We examine the experience of Thresholds, a virtual reality (VR) recreation of the world's first photographic exhibition, which has toured to multiple museums. Following the method of performance-led research in the wild, we provide an account of the... Read More about Thresholds: Embedding Virtual Reality in the Museum.

Soma Design and Sensory Misalignment (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Tennent, P., Marshall, J., Tsaknaki, V., Windlin, C., Höök, K., & Alfaras, M. (2020). Soma Design and Sensory Misalignment. In CHI '20: Proceedings of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1-12). https://doi.org/10.1145/3313831.3376812

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,...
