I will be presenting our paper: "Project TapTap: A Longitudinal Study Exploring Non-Verbal Communication through Vibration Signals Between Teachers and BLV Music Learners" this year at #CHI2025. If you are around, please do say hello. :) Preprint: cil.csit.carleton.ca/b/wp-content/u…
I think at some point I'll write a more thoughtful, reflective thing about the last 4+ years. But for now, I am #PhDone! 😊
We're doing another PhD in technical HCI office hours (6th Edition): next Wed Nov 20 11-12pm: docs.google.com/document/d/1aN… Lots of cool new faculty who will join me for Q&A. Please add your questions to the doc! And, please join if you can! RT for other interested students
Completing #ASSETS2024 with two presentations, one submitted dissertation and many new and old friendships. ASSETS folks you are special! ❤️✨
Thanks for sharing. 😊 #ASSETS2024
Spending this week at St John’s at #ASSETS2024. I’ll be presenting two papers this week. Come say hello if you’re here too. ✨👋
Great to see the engagement from this post. We have more tips and reflections about HCI research and scientific communication in our Makeability Lab handbook: docs.google.com/document/d/1Yi…
HCI systems papers need to tell visual stories. As we near the CHI deadline, here's a set of exemplary figures curated by my lab. Hope it helps inspire! Feel free to contribute some examples. docs.google.com/presentation/d…
🎶 Carleton PhD student Leon Lu is breaking barriers in music education. His Tap-Tap device allows blind and low-vision musicians to learn through vibrations. An inspiring story of innovation and inclusivity. Read the full story: bit.ly/3YFM8ju
Recently discussed the taptap project on @CBC radio. Listen from 12:50 onwards. @CBCOttawa cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
A really common question I get asked as an HCI and accessibility researcher is, "What are you *actually* doing?". Recently, @Carleton_U asked me to talk about an ongoing project, I'm super excited to share. It's called the tap-tap project. Read here: lnkd.in/g9Gi-EFy
Talks and inspiration by @me_backwards ✨✨✨ #ACMSummerSchool
We’re proud to announce the 1st edition of Teaching Accessible Computing, a free, community-sourced online book that helps CS educators integrate accessibility topics into their classes: bookish.press/tac Congrats to the authors and our lead editor, the amazing @OAlannah.
The coolest thing that’s happen to me lately. Being invited to an 11 year olds podcast to talk about my ongoing research. We discuss wearables, music learning and blindness. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/web…
