Since autumn 2008 I am a SICSA lecturer at Strathclyde (the
UK equivalent to an Assistant Professor). I worked at several places before,
including the UK's Open University, Sussex University, the Vienna
University of Technology, following my PhD in Bremen, Germany. Research Opportunities: Excellent candidates can apply for University PhD scholarships. Check out my research interests, publications, and the Mobiquitous Lab website. Other opportunities include visiting research periods (for a theses or internship) or if you have any other ideas for collaborations, drop me an email! News My paper 'Beyond Affordance: Tangibles' Hybrid Nature' was accepted for TEI 2012 - and got the BEST PAPER AWARD... - if you haven't read enough theory papers by me... Eva is Theme Chair on the Design Processes theme on the TPC of ACM DIS'12 , June 2012 in Newcastle UK and ACM CHI'12 Interactivity Explorations chair - and will be Poster co-chair for ITS 2012 (Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces) in Boston - a busy year! |
My research interests are the design and user experience of 'beyond the desktop' interaction (this includes e.g. multitouch surfaces, tangible interaction, whole-body interaction, mobile devices, physical(ly embedded) computing), support of social/collaborative interactions, and, very generally, the social/societal implications of technology. Misc A new, beautifully designed version of the Tangible Interaction Framework Brainstorming Card Game is available (thanks to Designer Elisabeth Eichhorn Berlin/Potsdam!) |
| Since spring 2011 I am forum editor for an article series on Tangible and Embodied Interaction for ACM's interaction magazine. Check out my intro article in the ACM DL! Every second issue of interactions features an article for this forum (contact me if you want to contribute!) Over summer 2010, we conducted a formative user study of five touchscreen and interactive table prototype installations for the National Trust Scotland. The new Robert Burns Birthplace museum in Alloway hosts the final installations and some of the flash-based games we tested are now available on their website. |

and social interaction Photos The best thing about the Livingstone Tower is the views of Glasgow... Photos from Glasgow and Scotland - beautiful city and country... |
| Our 2nd year students do a group project
in physical computing using Arduino in my 'Approaches to Multimedia'
class. Here is an overview of the best projects in 2009
and 2010
- some of these are pretty amazing for a 6 weeks project in 3d term
of studies...
