MultiView: Spatially Faithful Group Video Conferencing MultiView adds a new level of spatial fidelity to the many-to-many video conferencing experience by giving each person in the conference a unique and correct view of the remote side. This new level of spatial fidelity restores many of the non-verbal and spatial cues like eye contact and deixis to improve the overall effectiveness of remote collaboration. PDF |

Experimental Analysis of Mode Switching Techniques in Pen-based User Interfaces We investigated five techniques for switching between ink and gesture modes in pen interfaces, including a pen-pressure based mode switching technique that allows implicit mode transition. A quantitative experimental study was conducted to evaluate the performance of these techniques. PDF |

Location Disclosure to Social Relations: Why, When, & What People Want to Share New location technologies present a difficult privacy tradeoff, as disclosing one's location to another person or service could be highly risky, yet valuable. To explore whether and what users are willing to disclose about their location to social relations, we conducted a three-phased formative study. PDF |

ImproViz: Visual Explorations of Jazz Improvisations ImproViz is a visualization technique for diagramming music that brings to light the signature patterns of a jazz musician's improvisational style. ImproViz consists of two parts: melodic landscapes show the general contours of musical phrasing; and harmonic palettes represent the musician's tendency to use a particular combination of notes in a given part of the song.
