Very interesting collaboration at this #CHI2023 paper between teams at MIT, KTH, and SFU making a shape-changing *CORSETTO* to immerse audience in Opera performance! @ishii_mit, @ProfessorHook How better could it be? 👏 #AcademicChatter

Yay! Three honorable mentions. One for our very theoretical paper on Felt Ethics!

Reminder of the Call for Papers for Special Issue on Unmaking & HCI: Techniques, Technologies, Materials, and Philosophies Beyond Making: https://t.co/Jizg4c0Sb8 Deadline May 30th!

We observe that 20.1% of papers from these venues, including 60–80% of papers at UIST and 13% of papers in a broader dataset of @sigchi sponsored venues overall, are cited by patents—far greater than premier venues in science overall (9.7%) and NLP (11%).

If you’re into intimate health applications; #softrobotics and touch or #biodesign and fancy a two year #postdoc at KTH then check out this call
