Research Interests:

Dr. Nick Bryan-Kinns is Reader in Interaction Design, Director of the EPSRC+AHRC Media and Arts Technology Centre for Doctoral Training. He leads Interactional Sound and Music in the Centre for Digital Music at QM, and has published award winning international journal and conference papers on his funded research on mutual engagement, cross-modal interaction, and tangible interfaces. He was a panel member for the National Science Foundation?s CreativeIT funding panel, and provided expert consultation for the European Commission?s funding of Creativity and ICT. He was involved in two research networks focusing on the art-computer cross-over and future design, chaired the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) Creativity and Cognition conference 2010, and co-chaired the British Computer Society (BCS) international HCI conference 2006. Dr. Bryan-Kinns is a BCS Fellow, and a recipient of the ACM Recognition of Service Award, and BCS Recognition of Ten years service. In 1998 he was awarded a Ph.D. in Human Computer Interaction from the University of London.
