In the LLM-science discussion, I see a common misconception that science is a thing you do and that writing about it is separate and can be automated. I’ve written over 300 scientific papers and can assure you that science writing can’t be separated from science doing. Why? 1/18

Did your #CHI2023 Interactivity get accepted? Why not present it first at the #GermanPreCHI in Dresden? Register today at imld.de/pre-chi!

One of the most important skills as an Academic is dealing with failure - most papers are rejected, 90+% of grants don't make it, most contacts with industry don't result in projects, most research ideas don't pan out, etc. Yet this is one of the skill hardly ever taught :(

Yay, the playlist of video previews of #CHI2023 is finally released. 372 videos seem to be more than previous years. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Yesterday Nihar Sabnis presented his work on designing Tactile Symbols and mixing up embodied and hermeneutic ways of experiencing vibration at #CHI2023. You can download the paper here: dropbox.com/s/lxvize2xqwlg…

I will be presenting "Haptic Servos: Self-Contained Vibrotactile Rendering System for Creating or Augmenting Material Experiences" in the "More Than Human Interactions" session at #CHI2023 at 11am today! Our paper got an Honorable Mention :-)

congrats to HCI Lab - Saarland University for the best demo award at #CHI2023 👏🥳

#chi2023 “selfi“ - nearly 4000 people, including 80 children, were in Hamburg for the biggest academic human computer interaction conference. So many inspiring people to talk to and things to see! I need sleep now :) Kaisa Väänänen Per Ola Kristensson Anicia Peters (she/her) Tesh (Nitesh) Goyal @matviienkoa

Congrats to the team on winning #CHI2023 Best Demo Award 🏆 We hope you all enjoyed our demos and look forward to seeing you again at #CHI2024 🏝️🏄

A reminder that Elsevier made $10.5 BILLION in 2022 from selling your academic journals and articles behind paywalls, and make more profit than Amazon, Google, and Apple every year… And paid the academics who wrote the articles $0 And paid the reviewers of the articles $0

Sad news: Vincent Hayward, great researcher, pioneer of Haptics, excellent mentor and friend to many, has passed away this morning in Paris. Sorbonne Université ISIR - Robotique Académie des sciences McGill CIM 🎙 Haptics Club

As you get excited about new products revealed at #WWDC23, let me remind you that institutions in this country regularly pay recyclers to destroy millions of perfectly good Apple devices that you were just as excited about 3-10 years ago. #righttorepair #righttorefurbish

Check out this blog post from the 🎙 Haptics Club on how to design a #Vibrotactile language! This first part takes you through establishing the framework. It's a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of technology and touch! 🖐️ thehapticsclub.com/blog/how-to-de…

senSInt members Nihar Sabnis and Dennis Wittchen are co-hosting a workshop at World Haptics this July: tactilevision.github.io/WHC23-CollabJa…

The day was filled with inspiration! Thank you to the workshop organisers and the attendees for making today a success! #worldhaptics2023

1/4 Three Sensorimotor Interaction (sensint.mpi-inf.mpg.de) papers at CHI this year! This year it's three systems contributions, building on last years Haptic Servos work. And Yuran Ding, my first year PhD student got her first Honorable Mention!#CHI2024 Saarland Informatics Campus Sensorimotor Interaction

2/4 First up, Motionless Movement (Top 5%, Honourable Mention) explores how on might provide an experience of limb movement to users who are not moving using hatics. Congrats to Yuran Ding! dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36… #CHI2024 Saarland Informatics Campus @hcibabyuran Sensorimotor Interaction

Saarland Informatics Campus @hcibabyuran Sensorimotor Interaction 3/4 Next is vARitouch, a wearable tactile AR system that modifies one's perception of the material world. Great work by Gaby Vega Gabriela Vega dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36… #CHI2024 Saarland Informatics Campus Sensorimotor Interaction p.s. we need an acronym for tactile AR, any suggestions?

Saarland Informatics Campus @hcibabyuran Sensorimotor Interaction Gabriela Vega 4/4 Finally Shaping Compliance explores how to push this type of illusion further, using epidermal electronics.
