Excited to see that our ACM IUI '26 contribution on player perceptions on generative NPC dialogues (with Manuel Hochreiter and @skriglstein.bsky.social ) is now available on the ACM DL (lnkd.in/dnJMT4j3). Big shout out to my student Manuel Hochreiter for his great work on this.
If you have the time and would like to read some papers from Art Track which are dealing with tangible and artistic forms of visual information communication, please let me know and ping me so I can add you as a program committee member. Thank you very much! 🙏
As a member of the program committee, you will be expected to review submissions from your area of expertise. We aim to have each committee member review 3 - 4 papers (including full and short papers, posters).
The deadline for the reviews is the end of July.
👀 🙏 Reviewers needed!
This year, we received an unexpectedly high number of submissions for VINCI (lnkd.in/exA3bSDd). Especially the art track. We are therefore urgently looking for program committee members who can help us with the review of submissions.
📢 Due to popular demand we have extended the submission deadline for VINCI '25 by two weeks to June 27, 2025: vinci2025.games.cg.jku.at/call-for-pap...

One of my student looking for participants for her survey.. it is about GenAI and your experience with that :) it is very short questionnaire, but necessary for her requirement analysis, thank you : docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
Call for speakers - It is the last round (deadline 31 March 2025). We need more speakers with focus on #UX and #GUR :) but also academics who would like to share their research with the game industry. #game #industry #conference #speaker
🤩 Happy in the latest ACM's Interactions our article about the findings that we identified from our one-day MUM'23 workshop "Making a Real Connection: Pro-Social Collaborative Play in Extended Realities—Trends, Challenges and Potentials" is out: interactions.acm.org/archive/view...

Hi, one of my students looking for participants for her survey.. it is about reading books and to take notes. It is very short questionnaire, but necessary for her requirement analysis for her master thesis. If you have time, we are happy for each participant 🙂 : forms.office.com/pages/respon...
Looking forward to discuss with you your PhD project.

In this paper we used our VR reading prototype Bookwander to deeply investigate the differences between being absorbed by a narrative and by a virtual environment, and what are the effects of VR visuals on imagining.
