Situating Youth as Interaction Co-Designers of an Interactive Mural

This paper introduces a project in which diverse youth served as interaction co-designers of an interactive mural--a very-large-scale wall-based artwork. We describe an intensive workshop in which a group of youth collaborated with a professional artist and HCI researchers to design and construct a 45 x 9 ft (14 x 3 m…

Making Intimate Technologies Together

Feminist research highlights the urgent need to challenge the oppressive design of commercial intimate technologies, particularly how the FemTech industry restricts access to intimate bodily knowledge through paywalls and proprietary systems. Yet, for decades, women and marginalized communities have turned to Do-It-Yo…

3D Printing Eggshells: Exploring Eco-Socio-Technical Relations through Biomaterial Design

In response to ongoing environmental crises, the digital fabrication community within HCI has recently begun to design with biomaterials. Biomaterials and their corresponding practices carry eco-socio-technical relations that shape the creation of more sustainable futures. From this perspective, we present three entan…

ColdGlass: Full-Color Desktop 3D Printing in Glass

ColdGlass is a new material and workflow for accessible, affordable, and full-color glass 3D printing. We present: 1) a recipe for a 3D printable glass paste, 2) software and hardware that enable 3D printing, and 3) a firing schedule for sintering printed parts into solid glass. We evaluate our recipe and firing sched…

Ode to Barelas: Supporting Youth Agency, Cultural Expression, and Community Engagement Through an Interactive Mural

Community mural projects provide youth with the opportunity to learn new skills, have a voice, and deepen their connection to their communities. This pictorial reflects on a participatory community-based STEAM project in which a group of teenagers collaborated with a muralist (Author 2) and two interaction design res…

CeraMetal: A New Approach to Low-Cost Metal 3D Printing with Bronze Clay

This paper introduces CeraMetal, a low-cost and robust approach to desktop metal 3D printing based on a custom "metal clay". We present three recipes for 3D printable bronze clay along with a workflow that includes print parameters and a sintering schedule. We introduce custom slicing software that generates continuou…

Interactive Murals: New Opportunities for Collaborative STEAM Learning

This paper introduces interactive murals—artworks that combine longstanding traditions in community mural painting with ubiquitous computing—as new sites for collaborative STEAM learning. Using research-through-design and participatory design methods, we conducted an intensive spring and summer workshop in which high…

WeaveSlicer: Expanding the Range of Printable Geometries in Clay

Clay 3D printing is a relatively new technology and only a narrow range of geometries is 3D printable if one is employing commercially available slicing software. We experienced these limitations in an artist residency program where artists discovered that many desired geometries failed to print successfully. This mot…

Shape-Changing Clay-Dough: Taking a Material-Oriented Approach to 3D Printing Ceramic Forms

This paper presents clay-dough, a 3D printable ceramic material that is made from a mixture of stoneware clay and a biomaterial dough. While all clays shrink when they are fired at high temperatures, clay-dough enables more dramatic shrinkage due to the dough burning away. We developed three clay-dough recipes made fr…

µMe: Exploring the Human Microbiome as an Intimate Material for Living Interfaces

Our bodies are home to an unseen ecosystem of microbes that live in symbiosis with us. In this work, we extend the “human” in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) to include these microbes. Specifically, we explore the skin microbiome as an intimate material for interaction design. Viewing the body as a microbial interfac…

ReClaym our Compost: Biodegradable Clay for Intimate Making

In this work, we use composted food waste to create ReClaym: a personal biomaterial, made at home, that reflects the makers' relationship with food. We combine our personal compost with non-toxic binders to create a biomaterial that can completely biodegrade. We propose Intimate Making as an approach for working with…

Designing Direct Interactions with Bioluminescent Algae

Living matter is an emerging topic of interest in HCI as researchers are recognizing the unique affordances of biological materials. We explore direct interactions with Dinoflagellates, bioluminescent algae that produce light when exposed to oxygen through physical stimulation. Leveraging Dinoflagellates’ natural feed…

Self-deStaining Textiles: Designing Interactive Systems with Fabric, Stains and Light

This work introduces “destaining” as an interactive component for the HCI community. While staining happens unintentionally (e.g., spilling coffee), destaining can be used as an intentional design tool that selectively degrades stains on textiles. We explore the design space using silver doped titanium dioxide (TiO2/A…
