Crafting Interactive Decoration (2017)
Journal Article

We explore the crafting of interactive decoration for everyday artefacts. This involves adorning them with decorative patterns that enhance their beauty while triggering digital interactions when scanned with cameras. These are realised using an exis...

Office workers' perceived barriers and facilitators to taking regular micro-breaks at work: a diary-probed interview study (2017)
Journal Article

Research has suggested regular breaks in sedentary office work are im-portant for health, wellbeing and long-term productivity. Although many comput-erized break reminders exist, few are based on user needs and requirements as determined by formative...

On Lions, Impala, and Bigraphs: Modelling Interactions in Physical/Virtual Spaces (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 ACM. While HCI has a long tradition of formally modelling task-based interactions with graphical user interfaces, there has been less progress in modelling emerging ubiquitous computing systems due in large part to their highly contextual natu...

Families and mobile devices in museums: designing for integrated experiences (2016)
Journal Article

This paper presents an observational study of eight families engaging with a bespoke tablet experience produced for a space science centre. It documents the various ways in which family members orientate themselves to the usage of technology in this...

Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems (2016)
Journal Article

Augmenting navigation systems with landmarks has been posited as a method of improving the effectiveness of the technology and enhancing drivers’ engagement with the environment. However, good navigational landmarks are both laborious to collect and... Read More about Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems.

Expanding exertion gaming (2016)
Journal Article

While exertion games - digital games where the outcome is determined by physical exertion - are of growing interest in HCI, we believe the current health and fitness focus in the research of exertion games limits the opportunities this field has to o... Read More about Expanding exertion gaming.

Understanding food consumption lifecycles using wearable cameras (2015)
Journal Article

The Ethical Implications of HCI's Turn to the Cultural (2015)
Journal Article

We explore the ethical implications of HCI’s turn to the ‘cultural’. This is motivated by an awareness of how cultural applications, in our case interactive performances, raise ethical issues that may challenge established research ethics processes.... Read More about The Ethical Implications of HCI's Turn to the Cultural.

The Challenges of Using Biodata in Promotional Filmmaking (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 ACM. We present a study of how filmmakers collected and visualized physiological data - "biodata" - to construct a series of short promotional films depicting people undergoing "thrilling" experiences. Drawing on ethnographic studies of two ma... Read More about The Challenges of Using Biodata in Promotional Filmmaking.

Understanding mass participatory pervasive computing systems for environmental campaigns (2013)
Journal Article

Participate was a 3-year collaboration between industry and academia to explore how mobile, Web and broadcast technologies could combine to deliver environ- mental campaigns. In a series of pilot projects, schools used mobile sensors to enhance scien... Read More about Understanding mass participatory pervasive computing systems for environmental campaigns.

Performance-Led Research in the Wild (2013)
Journal Article

We explore the approach of performance-led research in the wild in which artists drive the creation of novel performances with the support of HCI researchers that are then deployed and studied at public performance in cultural settings such as galler...

Recommending rides: psychometric profiling in the theme park (2010)
Journal Article

This paper presents a study intended to inform the design of a recommender system for theme park rides. It examines the efficacy of psychometric testing for profiling theme park visitors, with the aim of establishing a set of measures to be included... Read More about Recommending rides: psychometric profiling in the theme park.

Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay (2006)
Journal Article

In this paper we consider the development of 'digital records' to support ethnographic study of interaction and collaboration in ubiquitous computing environments and articulate the core concept of 'record and replay' through two case studies. One fo... Read More about Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay.

Expected, sensed, and desired: A framework for designing sensing-based interaction (2005)
Journal Article

Movements of interfaces can be analyzed in terms of whether they are expected, sensed, and desired. Expected movements are those that users naturally perform; sensed are those that can be measured by a computer; and desired movements are those that a...

Patterns of Network and User Activity in an Inhabited Television Event (2001)
Journal Article

Inhabited television takes traditional broadcast television and combines it with multiuser virtual reality to give new possibilities for interaction and participation in and around shows or channels. Out of This World was an experimental inhabited TV... Read More about Patterns of Network and User Activity in an Inhabited Television Event.

Inhabited television: broadcasting interaction from within collaborative virtual environments (2000)
Journal Article

Inhabited television combines collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) with broadcast television so that on-line audiences can participate in television shows within shared virtual worlds. We describe a series of experiments with inhabited televisio... Read More about Inhabited television: broadcasting interaction from within collaborative virtual environments.

Three dimensional visualization of the World Wide Web (1999)
Journal Article

Although large-scale public hypermedia structures such as the World Wide Web are popularly referred to as "cyberspace", the extent to which they constitute a space in the everyday sense of the word is questionable. This paper reviews recent work in t... Read More about Three dimensional visualization of the World Wide Web.
