It can inspire and provide direction for designs that aim to enrich the experiential texture of forests. The taxonomy stemmed from a reflexive analysis of 104 speculative ideas produced during a year-long co-design process, where we co-experienced and creatively engaged a diverse range forests and forest-related activities with 250+ forest-goers with varied backgrounds and sensitivities. Given that breadth of forests and populations involved, our work foregrounds a rich set of design directions that set an actionable early frame for creating tech that supports joyful human-forest interplays – one that we hope will be extended and consolidated in future research, ours and others'.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2025 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems}, articleno = {742}, numpages = {21}, keywords = {Nature, celebratory tech, forests, interactive tech, joy, play, speculative design}, location = { }, series = {CHI '25} }

@book{wearablesbook2024mitp, title = {Playful Wearables: Understanding the Design Space of Wearables for Games and Related Experiences}, abstract = {An expert introduction to the world of “playful wearables” and their design, with a wide range of engaging examples, case studies, and exercises. This pioneering introduction to the world of wearable technology takes readers beyond the practical realm (think Fitbits, Apple watches, and smart glasses) to consider another important side of the technology—the playful. Playful Wearables offers an engaging account of what “playful wearables” are, why they matter, how they work, how they’re made, and what their future might hold. The book’s authors—Oğuz Buruk, Ella Dagan, Katherine Isbister, Elena Márquez Segura, and Theresa Jean Tanenbaum—draw on decades of experience in design, development, and research to offer real-world examples, exercises, and implications, showing how this kind of wearable tech can introduce an invaluable element of play into our everyday lives. As wearable technology emerges in the ecology of costume and fashion, the authors consider its intimate connection to identity and culture. And they look at the ways in which playful wearables, when smoothly integrated into everyday social experiences, support social interaction. The book then moves on to the mechanics of playful wearables—from design strategies and frameworks to specific methods and game design patterns—the building blocks for great playful, wearable designs. All of these elements point to possibilities beyond the realm of games and dedicated play, as the value and uses of playful wearables in the larger world of self, society, and culture become ever more apparent.}, publisher = {MIT Press}, author = {Buruk, Oğuz ‘Oz’ and Dagan, Ella and Isbister, Katherine and Segura, Elena Márquez and Tanenbaum, Theresa Jean}, url = {https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262546911/playful-wearables/}, year = {2024} }

We investigated this topic through four co-speculation workshops focusing on physical, cognitive, sensory and emotional augmentations with 35 participants. Through a reflexive thematic analysis of the workshop data, we outlined eight HAT speculations for transhuman communication, grouped into four overarching augmentation clusters: (1) Bodily Changes in/for Communication, (2) Communication with Transferrable and Collective Beings, (3) Communication through Emotion and Memory, and (4) Communication with Augmented/Altered Perception. By serving as a foundation for discussions on transhumanism and communication in CSCW and beyond, these speculations contribute to a design space highlighting design opportunities and challenges to developing and researching near-future communication technologies.}, journal = {Proc.

@article{hrcompanion2024ijsoro, title = {Human-Robot Companionship: Current Trends and Future Agenda}, author = {Ahmed, Eshtiak and Buruk, Oğuz ‘Oz’ and Hamari, Juho}, abstract = {The field of robotics has grown exponentially over the years, especially the social aspect, which has enabled robots to interact with humans meaningfully. Robots are now used in many domains, such as manufacturing, healthcare, education, entertainment, rehabilitation, etc. Along with their widespread use in many real-life environments, robots have been used as companions to humans. With the increased amount of research done on human–robot partnership (HRC), it is important to understand how this domain is developing, in which direction, and what the future might hold. There is also a need to understand the influenza factors and what kind of empirical results are in the literature. To address these questions, we conducted a systematic literature review and analyzed a final number of 134 relevant articles. The findings suggest that anthropomorphic and zoomorphic robots are more popular as human companions, while there is a lack of interest in functional and caricatured robots. Also, human-like and animal-like features are implemented more in companion robots. Studies rarely exploit the mobility available in these robots in companionship scenarios, especially in outdoor settings. In addition to that, co-existence and co-performance-based implementation with people have been observed rarely. Based on the results, we propose a future research agenda that includes thematic, theoretical, methodological, and technological agendas. This study will help us understand the current state and use of robotic companies which will then potentially aid in determining how HRC can be leveraged and integrated more seamlessly into human lives for better effectiveness.}, journal = {International Journal of Social Robotics}, pages = {1-52}, year = {2024}, doi = {10.1007/s12369-024-01160-y}, publisher = {Springer} }

Despite numerous original studies on the development as well as the current advances of wearables, a systematic review from the standpoint of fashion seems to be lacking. Thus, this systematic review aimed to explore the current state of research on computational fashion in wearables’ literature in terms of the key domains, theoretical models, materials, interaction modalities, and existing gaps. To this aim, the authors built a search string based on the keywords in related topics and conducted the research using Scopus databases. As a result, a total of 4777 papers between January 1990 to August 2021 were screened and 82 research study papers finally passed the inclusion-exclusion criteria for the purpose of the review. The results display: first, computational wearables’ studies are becoming more inclined towards the aesthetic aspects of fashion wearables; second, although the functional aspects of the design processes received more attention, embodiment was the most discussed theory in the included studies; third, the extensive application of fabric implied the need for new fabrics with both smart quality and flexibility to afford aesthetic aspects; fourth, ambient data as input modalities received extensive attention in fashion wearables; fifth, kinetic output modalities as novel modes of fashion expression are becoming as prevalent as visual modalities.

However, most such systems appear to focus on instrumental benefits, missing out on the opportunity to use bodily extensions for play and its associated benefits (including a lower adoption barrier and the potential to reveal a broader understanding of such technologies). To begin understanding the design of playful bodily extensions, we interviewed five designers of bodily extensions that have been showcased in prestigious academic venues or turned into commercial products. Here we present themes and actionable advice from these interviews for the design of playful bodily extensions through a thematic analysis. Our work aims to support the design of future playful bodily extensions while promoting the experiential qualities of bodily extension design, with the ultimate goal of bringing more playful experiences to people’s lives.}, year = {2023}, isbn = {9781450394215}, publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery}, address = {New York, NY, USA}, doi = {10.1145/3544548.3581165}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems}, articleno = {233}, numpages = {20}, carousel = {4}, keywords = {Expert Interviews, Cyborg, Posthuman, Play, Wearables, Bodily Extensions, Transhuman, Thematic Analysis, Games}, location = {Hamburg, Germany}, series = {CHI '23} }

To fill this gap, we have conducted an exploratory study through 6 participatory design workshops focusing on different aspects of wearables with 33 participants from different stakeholders. As a result, we have created fifteen design themes and three gaming wearable concepts that led to seven actionable design implications which can be adopted by designers and researchers for designing gaming wearables.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems}, articleno = {444}, numpages = {15}, keywords = {RPG, LARP, Social Interaction, Game Research, Bioadaptive, Role Playing, Wearables, Movement-Based Games, Virtual Reality, Costuming, Game Controllers}, location = {Yokohama, Japan}, series = {CHI '21} }

However, (trans)humanity and future cities are defined in a bi-directional dependency. Therefore, we have to answer the questions of future humans and cities simultaneously.

However, few of these projects treat wearables as an integral part of the gameplay, often considering them as an extension of the central on-screen experience. While preliminary forays into wearable play show promise, we see a need for a rigorous design framework to illuminate the possibilities for the future of wearables for playful interaction design. In this paper we propose a Design Framework for Playful Wearables stemming from our extensive research and hands-on experience in leading four long-term game research projects incorporating wearables. We divide our framework into three high-level categories: the performative, the social and the interactive. We contend that this design space can be both a design tool for creators of wearable playful activities, as well as an analytical lens for evaluating existing wearable systems.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on the Foundations of Digital Games}, articleno = {19}, numpages = {12}, keywords = {movement-based games, wearables, playful interaction, LARP, RPG, game research, role playing, costuming}, location = {San Luis Obispo, California, USA}, series = {FDG '19} }

It has been used by artists as a medium offering 2) creative stimulation to generate material and develop ideas for their work.

Yet, it is not clear how the cross-pollination between computational and fashion materials might suggest directions for wearables. We believe exploring this territory is important for providing actionable directions to the designers and engineers. Therefore, we followed a two-pillared research through design method: (1) a design workshop with 14 fashion design and 6 engineering students where they created 7 artifacts by exploring computational and fashion materials and (2) semi-structured interviews with 10 wearable design experts from different countries, in which discussed our analysis on the workshop outcomes. After we refined our findings with the feedbacks of the experts we came up with 5 design recommendations for designers along with the strategies that they can follow for applying them. This kind of recommendations, achieved through an examinations that bridges fashion design and computational materials by also considering expert opinions, was not implemented before. In this respect, our recommendations are shaped up as follows: (1) Giving information through fabric augmentation, (2) defining bi-directional interaction between the contexts and garments, (3) controlling the form of the garments, (4) treating surfaces, and (5) supporting the three dimensional shape of the garment with computational materials.}, pages = {1-19} }

A 3D printer crafts by adding layers of molten streams of plastic, in a continuous additive fabrication process. We designed the game ‘Playing Esker’, a strategy game where two players compete over the gradual printing of esker formations. Following a research-through-game-design approach, we document how additive material fabrication processes can be used as gamespaces, highlighting 3 themes for Additive Games: (1) Additive turn-taking, where we explored playful turn-based interactions with the printer. (2) Material constraints, where we treated material limitations as game mechanics. (3) Earth-procedurality, where we used procedural generation in combination with additive games to engage players with the unpredictable formations of the esker. Lastly, we reflect on geophilosophical and geological ideas, which we used as generative lenses to inspire new and alternative forms of world-building. By emphasising the earth and world-formation processes through gameplay, geophilosophy can inspire new modes of non-human world-building, agency and territoriality in games.}, booktitle = {Companion Proceedings of the 2024 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play}, pages = {365–371}, location = {Tampere, Finland}, series = {CHI PLAY Companion '24} }

Fundamentally, it seeks to improve the human species, yet the impacts of such movement are unknown and the implications on children's lives and technologies were not explored deeply. In an age, where technologies such as under-skin chips or brain-machine interfaces can clearly be defined as transhumanist, our aim is to reveal probable pitfalls and benefits of those technologies on children's lives by using the power of design fiction.

One of the most encountered phenomenon during these studies is legacy bias. It refers to users' tendency to transfer gestures from the existing technologies to their designs. The literature presents varying views on the topic; some studies asserted that legacy bias should be diminished, whereas other stated that it should be preserved. Yet, to the best of our knowledge, none of the elicitation studies tested their designs with the end users. In our study, 36 participants compared two gesture sets with and without legacy. Initial findings showed that legacy gesture set had higher scores. However, the interviews uncovered that some non-legacy gestures were also favored due to their practicality and affordances. We contribute to the legacy bias literature by providing new insights from the end users' perspective.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2018 ACM Conference Companion Publication on Designing Interactive Systems}, pages = {277–281}, keywords = {legacy bias, user elicitation, gesture control, embodied interaction}, location = {Hong Kong, China}, series = {DIS '18 Companion} }

Nevertheless, these efforts mostly remained as functional augmentations. We believe that integrating new gameplay styles to this genre is still an underexplored area. Drawing upon the previous studies, we believe that wearables which support movement-based gameplay can be a good step taken in this direction as previous studies claim that wearables can strengthen the link to the imaginary worlds which is critical for TTRPG experience while the movement-based play can increase the player engagement. However, previous studies did not investigate these concepts with an implemented technology. Therefore, to get a better understanding of how wearables can alter the TTRPG experience, we designed a new RPG game system and developed the Elemental Gauntlet and the Luck Stone which enable movement-based game play in TTRPG context. Our preliminary results showed that, movement-based play and wearable props strengthen the identification feeling with the fictional character and resulted in a better immersion to the imaginary world of the game.}, booktitle = {Extended Abstracts Publication of the Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play}, pages = {639–646}, keywords = {exertion games, gestures, movement-based game, PNPRPG, role playing games, participatory design, TTRPG, tabletop, wearable computing}, location = {Amsterdam, The Netherlands}, series = {CHI PLAY EA '17} }
