This article examines these claims of newness by focusing on statements made by industry leaders and other professionals. The findings suggest repetitions of problematic discourse, in which colonialist language of “pioneering” expansion appears to be used to mobilize developers who are dominantly young, White, and male. I argue that recontextualizing the “newness” of VR opens opportunities to contest its depoliticized histories and to question its imagined futures. Situating VR within a much longer history of digital and non-digital technologies not only challenges the notions of newness that are foundational to industry-led VR discourse, but also offers a critical alternative.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Daniel Harley</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Virtual narratives, physical bodies: Designing diegetic sensory experiences for virtual reality</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Convergence</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Accepted</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1177/13548565231178915</style></url></web-urls></urls><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13548565231178915</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This article presents a reflection on four virtual reality (VR) research projects to foreground questions about how physical and sensory interactions are incorporated into VR narratives.

As industry-led discourse presented VR as a vision of opportunity and change in the tech industry, Launch Pad presented a vision of social progress through improved diversity. However, a variety of contextualizing factors within that first year complicate these visions of progress, including the gendered and racialized norms of the tech industry, the politics of Oculus’s co-founder and the mixed feelings of the first beneficiaries of the program. I argue that even if Launch Pad is a good faith effort to address historical and current forms of marginalization and underrepresentation in the tech industry, such efforts must go much further than mentorship and tokenized inclusion, requiring a genuine recognition of the need for systemic change.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MacArthur, Cayley</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sharing Play Spaces: Design Lessons from Reddit Posts Showing Virtual Reality in the Home</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the 2023 ACM Designing Interactive Systems Conference</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DIS '23</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">domestic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">home</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interaction design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">play</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddit</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">social</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">virtual reality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">visual analysis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2023</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3563657.3596005</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">509–522</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450398930</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">With the increasing availability of consumer virtual reality (VR) devices for personal and recreational use, the domestic contexts of VR design are increasingly important. Given that much of the current interaction design research for VR is conducted in lab-based settings, there is a need for design considerations that engage with the complexities of these real-world spaces. We present an analysis of visual data (e.g., GIFs, videos, photographs) collected from a manual search of Reddit posts that show “play spaces” and other home-based contexts of VR. Our findings offer insight into the diverse and dynamic characteristics of VR spaces, with set-ups ranging from bedrooms to garages, and with the people, objects, impediments, and affordances of individual spaces demonstrating a variety of ways that VR is used in the home. We conclude by discussing directions for future interaction design research that seeks to incorporate physical actions and environments while also engaging with the complex realities of domestic VR.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grambart, Stefan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Skazufka Bergel, Rodrigo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Together Alone: A Tangible Online Narrative</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the Sixteenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEI '22</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">board games</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">embodied</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">escape room</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Games</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">narrative design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">role-playing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Video conferencing</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2022</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3490149.3501311</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450391474</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present an online narrative using video conferencing that is designed to facilitate collaborative storytelling using physical objects.

We propose that a focus on the actions the player is asked to perform (e.g., touch, stand, kneel, grasp, walk, listen, reach, dance) can contribute to an understanding of VR as a sensory, embodied medium that offers ways to playfully engage with physical reality rather than simulate it entirely.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MacArthur, Cayley</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grinberg, Arielle</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hancock, Mark</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">You’re Making Me Sick: A Systematic Review of How Virtual Reality Research Considers Gender &amp; Cybersickness</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CHI '21</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cybersickness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">gender</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">simulator sickness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">systematic review</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">virtual environments</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">virtual reality</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3411764.3445701</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450380966</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">While multiple studies suggest that female-identified participants are more likely to experience cybersickness in virtual reality (VR), our systematic review of 71 eligible VR publications (59 studies and 12 surveys) pertaining to gender and cybersickness reveals a number of confounding factors in study design (e.g., a variety of technical specifications, tasks, content), a lack of demographic data, and a bias in participant recruitment. Our review shows an ongoing need within VR research to more consistently include and report on women’s experiences in VR to better understand the gendered possibility of cybersickness.

At the heart of this transition is Palmer Luckey, founder of Oculus and purported ‘face’ of VR. This article develops a case study centred on Palmer Luckey to examine the rise of contemporary VR within the overlapping, contemporaneous contexts of video game culture and the misogynistic gamergate movement. As gamergate expanded its scope with far-right political fervour, Luckey’s political ambitions also expanded in scope. I argue that Luckey’s promotion under the banner of ‘progress’ serves to reify White, male systems of power that are both established and contested within cultures of technological development.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kurt Thumlert</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Daniel Harley</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jason Nolan</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sound Beginnings: Learning, Communicating, and Making Sense with Sound</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Music Educators Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1177/0027432120952081</style></url></web-urls></urls><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></number><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">66-69</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The ongoing work by educators responding to calls for equity, diversity, and inclusion in music education shows the breadth of difficult work that has been accomplished as well as the challenging work that lies ahead.

In contemporary smartphone-VR, experiences are limited by short playtimes, limited interactions, and limited movement within a physical space. To address these limitations, we suggest a reconceptualization of smartphone-VR. Rather than design that deems the smartphone the least capable VR platform, we propose design that adds VR to an already rich mobile storytelling platform. We argue that by drawing on otherwise separate storytelling media, designers can circumvent limitations related to smartphone-VR while also extending the range of smartphone-based storytelling. We conclude by reflecting on possible implications of this extended design space.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Verni, Alexander</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Willis, Mackenzie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ng, Ashley</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bozzo, Lucas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensory VR: Smelling, Touching, and Eating Virtual Reality</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEI '18</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diegetic design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive narratives</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">non-digital.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sensory design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible and embodied interaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">virtual reality</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3173225.3173241</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">386–397</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450355681</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present two proof of concept sensory experiences designed for virtual reality (VR). Our experiences bring together smell, sound, taste, touch, and sight, focusing on low-cost, non-digital materials and on passive interactions. We also contribute a design rationale and a review of sensory interactions, particularly those designed for VR. We argue that current sensory experiences designed for VR often lack a broader consideration of the senses, especially in their neglect of the non-digital. We discuss some implications of non-digital design for sensory VR, suggesting that there may be opportunities to expand conceptions of what sensory design in VR can be.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tarun, Aneesh P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Germinario, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tangible VR: Diegetic Tangible Objects for Virtual Reality Narratives</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive Systems</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DIS '17</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive narratives</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">narrative design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible diegetic objects</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible interaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">virtual reality</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3064663.3064680</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1253–1263</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450349222</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present a system for diegetic tangible objects in virtual reality (VR) narratives. The system integrates a custom-designed sensor unit, built with low-cost off-the-shelf hardware, to track objects in VR and to support a variety of custom-made and found tangibles. In its current form, the sensor unit tracks the objects' orientation and supports the authoring of specifically designed interactions for each tangible object. We contribute our design rationale, sensor unit, and four proof of concept prototypes, including a cube, a stuffed animal, a treasure chest, and a wooden boat, demonstrating how we leverage passive and active haptics to create a closer link between real and virtual worlds. For developers and users of VR, we expand interaction possibilities to include the physical characteristics of tangible objects. For the field of tangible narratives, we expand the current use of diegetic objects.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kwan, Jamie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chu, Jean Ho</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McBride, Melanie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grasping Cultural Context through Multisensory Interactions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the TEI '16: Tenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEI '16</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cultural artifacts</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">experience design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive museum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Multisensory interaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">senses</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sensory</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">smell</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible and embodied interfaces</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/2839462.2856537</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">482–487</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450335829</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper describes the research and design of three tangible and embodied prototypes that aim to enable users to meaningfully engage with an artifact's historical context and use. Together, these prototypes engage users in a cultural heritage experience that is sensorially embodied through a 'multimodal' ensemble of visual, aural, tactile, and olfactory interactions. A preliminary user test suggests that future work on multisensory interaction should focus on developing accessible design principles and considerations that support a sensorially embodied and tangible understanding of historical artifacts. We suggest that multisensory interactions present significant opportunities for interactive exhibits to expand our access to cultural history and its artifacts.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chu, Jean Ho</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kwan, Jamie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McBride, Melanie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensing History: Contextualizing Artifacts with Sensory Interactions and Narrative Design</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Designing Interactive Systems</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DIS '16</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cultural artifacts</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">experience design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive museum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">narrative design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sensory interaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible and embodied interfaces</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/2901790.2901829</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1294–1302</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450340311</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present three prototypes that aim to elicit historical and experiential qualities of 16th century prayer-nuts through narrative design and sensory interactions. Our goal is to enhance the presentation of cultural artifacts that must be presented behind glass to ensure their conservation. We aim to provide visitors with opportunities to form personalized connections with the past through historical, sensory, and embodied information that is otherwise unavailable. We use narrative design as a strategy to conceptualize and ground an experience that considers the contexts of users, their interactions, and the space in which the interactions occur. Together, our prototypes create an experience that is embodied, visual, aural, tactile, and olfactory. We present a brief review of related work, descriptions of the prototypes, our design rationale, and the results of our user study.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chu, Jean Ho</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kwan, Jamie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Towards a Framework for Tangible Narratives</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the TEI '16: Tenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEI '16</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">framework</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive storytelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">narrative design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tangible narratives</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible user interfaces</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/2839462.2839471</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">62–69</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450335829</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper presents a preliminary framework to inform the analysis and design of tangible narratives. Researchers and designers have been using tangible user interfaces (TUIs) for storytelling over the past two decades, but to date no comprehensive analysis of these systems exists. We argue that storytelling systems that use digitally-enhanced physical objects form a unique medium with identifiable narrative characteristics. Our framework isolates these characteristics and focuses on the user's perspective to identify commonalities between existing systems, as well as gaps that can be addressed by new systems. We find that the majority of systems in our sample require the user to perform exploratory actions from an external narrative position. We note that systems that cast the user in other interactive roles are rare but technologically feasible, suggesting that there are many underexplored possibilities for tangible storytelling.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chu, Jean Ho</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Clifton, Paul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pavao, Jordanne</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mazalek, Ali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mapping Place: Supporting Cultural Learning through a Lukasa-inspired Tangible Tabletop Museum Exhibit</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEI '15</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">collaboration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cultural history</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interaction design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive tabletop</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">learning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">museum exhibit</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">storytelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tangible interaction</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/2677199.2680559</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">261–268</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450333054</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Museums are exploring new ways of using emerging digital technologies to enhance the visitor experience. In this context, our research focuses on designing, developing and studying interactions for museum exhibits that introduce cultural concepts in ways that are tangible and embodied. We introduce here a tangible tabletop installation piece that was designed for a museum exhibition contrasting Western and African notions of mapping history and place. Inspired by the Lukasa board, a mnemonic device used by the Luba peoples in Central Africa, the tabletop piece enables visitors to learn and understand symbolic and nonlinguistic mapping concepts that are central to the Lukasa by creating and sharing stories with each other. In this paper we share our design process, a user study focusing on children and learning, and design implications on how digital and tangible interaction technologies can be used for cultural learning in museum exhibits.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lachman, Richard</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CHI PLAY 2014: the bellman: subtle interactions in a linear narrative</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the First ACM SIGCHI Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CHI PLAY '14</style></tertiary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Games</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">interactive</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Internet</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">narrative</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">storytelling</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/2658537.2662988</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Association for Computing Machinery</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New York, NY, USA</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">343–346</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9781450330145</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper presents an Internet adaptation of a novella called The Bellman.
