Exploring opportunities to facilitate serendipity in search (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Rahman, M. A., & Wilson, M. L. (2015). Exploring opportunities to facilitate serendipity in search.

Serendipitously discovering new information can bring many benefits. Although we can design systems to highlight serendipitous information, serendipity cannot be easily orchestrated and is thus hard to study. In this paper, we deployed a working sear...

#Scanners: integrating physiology into cinematic experiences (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Pike, M., Ramchurn, R., & Wilson, M. L. (2015). #Scanners: integrating physiology into cinematic experiences.

In this paper we present #Scanners, a digital arts installation that aims to bridge the gap between digital arts and neuroscience. #Scanners is an experience in which an individual wears a wireless brain scanners whilst being presented media which is...

Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Flintham, M. D., Velt, R., Wilson, M. L., Anstead, E. J., Benford, S., Brown, A., …Sprinks, J. (2015). Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators. In CHI '15: Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (747-756). https://doi.org/10.1145/2702123.2702463

There has been a massive growth in the number of people who film and upload amateur footage of events to services such as Facebook and Youtube, or even stream live to services such as LiveStream. We present an exploratory study that investigates the... Read More about Run spot run: capturing and tagging footage of a race by crowds of spectators.

Examining the reliability of using fNIRS in realistic HCI settings for spatial and verbal tasks (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Maior, H. A., Pike, M., Sharples, S., & Wilson, M. L. (2015). Examining the reliability of using fNIRS in realistic HCI settings for spatial and verbal tasks.

Recent efforts have shown that functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) has potential value for brain sensing in HCI user studies. Research has shown that, although large head movement significantly affects fNIRS data, typical keyboard use, mous...
