Journal Article
Spence, J., Koleva, B., Benford, S., Darzentas, D., Flintham, M., Glover, K., Wagner, H., Gibson, R., & Thorn, E. C. (2023). "More Than a cliché": Experiencing Hybrid Gifting in the Wild. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 30(4), Article 55. https://doi.org/10.1145/3577015

Gifting is socially and economically important. Studies of gifting physical objects have revealed motivations, values, and the tensions between them, while HCI research has revealed weaknesses of digital gifting and explored possibilities of hybrid g...

Hybrid gifting combines physical artefacts and experiences with digital interactivity to generate new kinds of gifts. Our review details how gifting is a complex social phenomenon and how digital gifting is less engaging than physical gifting for bot... Read More about Designing Hybrid Gifts.

Progressivity for voice interface design (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fischer, J. E., Reeves, S., Porcheron, M., & Sikveland, R. O. (2019, August). Progressivity for voice interface design. Presented at 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces, Dublin, Ireland

Drawing from Conversation Analysis (CA), we examine how the orientation towards progressivity in talk--keeping things moving--might help us better understand and design for voice interactions. We introduce progressivity by surveying its explication i... Read More about Progressivity for voice interface design.

Adaptive Architecture and Personal Data (2019)
Journal Article
Schnädelbach, H., Jäger, N., & Urquhart, L. (2019). Adaptive Architecture and Personal Data. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 26(2), 1-31. https://doi.org/10.1145/3301426

Via sensors carried by people and sensors embedded in the environment, personal data is being processed to try to understand activity patterns and people{\textquoteright}s internal states in the context of human-building interaction. This data is use... Read More about Adaptive Architecture and Personal Data.
