Designing mobile experiences for collocated interaction (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Lundgren, S., Fischer, J., Reeves, S., & Torgersson, O. (2015). Designing mobile experiences for collocated interaction.

Many of our everyday social interactions involve mobile devices. Yet, these tend to only provide good support for distributed social interactions. Although much HCI and CSCW research has explored how we might support collocated, face-to-face situatio... Read More about Designing mobile experiences for collocated interaction.

The designers of mobile guides for museums and galleries face three major challenges: fostering rich interpretation, delivering deep personalization, and enabling a coherent social visit. We propose an approach to tackling all three simultaneously by... Read More about Gifting personal interpretations in galleries.

Human values in curating a human rights media archive (2014)
Conference Proceeding

Supporting group interactions in museum visiting (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Tolmie, P., Benford, S., Greenhalgh, C., Rodden, T., & Reeves, S. (2014). Supporting group interactions in museum visiting.

Ethnographic study in two contrasting museums highlights a widespread but rarely documented challenge for CSCW design. Visitors' engagement with exhibits often ends prematurely due to the need to keep up with or attend to fellow group members. We unp...
