My research combines craft and performance to look for novel interaction formats and to design new digital media. The approach combines theory and practice and very often mixes both. The goal is to support human creativity in situations where the digital and the material blend into each other. Most of this work happens in my group, the Digital World and Image Group. Our past and present projects are also listed there.

Together with my students we ran an of-and-off studio blog for past projects and explorations (archived).

I have been collaborating with a variety of academic and commercial partners on different research projects: Turner Broadcasting, Google, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Alcatel-Lucent, the Georgia Tech Broadband Institute,as well as game developers Funatics, and EA. Other work was or is supported by the National Science Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and various sources at Georgia Tech including GVU, IPaT, DILAC, and the Serve-Learn-Sustain program.

In the past, I used to run an irregular blog about machinima, Freepixel. It is largely for archival reasons still online.
