Explore a conference talk that delves into the concept of "self-situated performance research" in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Discover how researchers participate in digitally mediated creative experiences alongside participants, extending traditional HCI practices. Learn about four key contributions: developing intimate researcher-participant relationships, providing new ways to make sense of interactions, shaping participants' relationship to research, and enabling real-time refinement of work. Examine case studies ranging from staged events to locative audio and public making, and understand how this approach bridges HCI and performance theories. Gain insights into creating characters to orchestrate interactions, performing the descent into fiction, developing trust through situatedness, and continuously devising and co-creating with participants through live improvisation.
