The Memory Machine is an ambitious project that aims to develop a device to capture people's memories to create a blend of personal and factual data that builds identities, and contextualizes personal recollections. The Memory Machine has been guided... Read More about MeMa: Designing the Memory Machine.

Improvising a Live Score to an Interactive Brain-Controlled Film (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Ramchurn, R., Martinez-Avila, J., Martindale, S., Chamberlain, A., Wilson, M. L., & Benford, S. (2019). Improvising a Live Score to an Interactive Brain-Controlled Film.

We report on the design and deployment of systems for the performance of live score accompaniment to an interactive movie by a Networked Musical Ensemble. In this case, the audiovisual content of the movie is selected in real time based on user input... Read More about Improvising a Live Score to an Interactive Brain-Controlled Film.

The ludic takes work (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Koutsouras, P., Martindale, S., & Crabtree, A. (2017). The ludic takes work. . https://doi.org/10.18420/ecscw2017-8

Games that revolve around user-generated content have been explored mainly from a ludic perspective, leaving the work practices that are entailed in content production underexplored. What we argue in this paper is that there is an underlying economy... Read More about The ludic takes work.

“We don’t sell blocks” exploring Minecraft’s commissioning market (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Koutsouras, P., Martindale, S., & Crabtree, A. (2016). “We don’t sell blocks” exploring Minecraft’s commissioning market.

In recent years, we have experienced the proliferation of videogames that have, as their main mode of play, the creation of in-game content. Even though existing literature has looked into various characteristics of these games, one of their aspects... Read More about “We don’t sell blocks” exploring Minecraft’s commissioning market.
