Interactive Digital Narratives:
The narratives we consume and share with others are powerful things, and my dissertation work focuses on how we might use interactive digital narratives as an intervention in therapy.
Creativity Support Tools:
We gesture to share ideas with each other, but what if as we gestured, those ideas were captured and translated into meaningful visualizations to support our creative process? One of my favorite research endeavors has been investigating how to translate ideas from gesture through motion capture, and I’m excited to see where my colleagues and I go next!
Interaction Design for Children:
I’m happy to be part of an ongoing grant that investigates how allowing children to create their stories through motion capture aid in their writing tasks in school. Children have specific needs when it comes to interactive technologies, and working with them gives you a sense that what you’re researching is truly impactful.
