You never know which paper will be the one that stricken the right cord. But Def the idea that if you have a problem others might have the same problem is a good start for a significant paper! League of Legends also scores on nerdland 🤓
This year #CHI2023 will also combine a number of amazing summer schools co-located just the week after the main conference. They are organized by top research groups in the geographic area of Germany/Denmark etc. They are FREE.
I will be there looking forward to do some magic 🪄
Come and join our CHI 23 Summer School on XR in beautiful Copenhagen on May 2-4 with @Joanna_BL@khornbaek and @HansGellersen! We'll have space for 50 participants and exciting talks from speakers like @twi_marhttps://chi2023summerschools.uol.de/extended-reality…
Ok. I am here reading all the horrible things that are happening in this platform. I had decided to leave, to post on LinkedIn. Now I have decided I will still use twitter but I will only post links that bring people out of here. I suggest you do the same.
for editing this and getting us all in line 🙏. Happy to be sharing some of our deeper fundamental insights on visually driven hand reach inside this new volume. 👀🫳

Thrilled to have you on board the BIRD 🦜 lab! Looking forward to all the Blended Interactions Research and Devices we will create together 🤓 (yes I am back on Twitter for this special announcement 🤷♀️)
I’m excited to share that I’ve recently completed my PhD and started a new position @Google! Thrilled and grateful to be part of a new team working with @twi_mar, Andrea Colaço, and other amazing researchers to build the future of immersive mixed reality.
If anyone is thinking: how can I download my data from twitter before it is gone for ever? Will I be able to migrate? Well here is the link to download the data:

As per the migration, I don't think it will be long until we can upload all this to mastodon.
Although my headrest got the job done I was never really happy. Especially since it causes the HMD to move a bit when you lean against it. So, now I'm using a neckrest, which avoids the problem. Here with
Maybe now more than ever reputation of the authors will be critical. Institutional reputation. As well as working demonstrations and prototypes. At least until video fakes are also as good. Of course none of this makes sense for theories. Only for practical work.
I asked #Galactica about some things I know about and I'm troubled. In all cases, it was wrong or biased but sounded right and authoritative. I think it's dangerous. Here are a few of my experiments and my analysis of my concerns. (1/9)
If we are going to have fake scientific papers, we might has well have fake reviews of fake papers. And then we can also have fake letters of reference for fake academics who get promoted to tenure at fake universities. I can then retire as there is nothing left for me to do.
Let this sink: the only people who CAN’T leave Twitter are the H1B visa holders who if they lose their job in 60 days get sent back home. It can take decades before they get a GC… No employment-at-will for these people. Slaves of XXI working for the richest man on earth. 🤯
The Realistic Graphics Lab is looking to recruit a *PhD student* and a *Research Engineer*. We develop algorithms and systems that invert the process of rendering to reconstruct realistic 3D worlds from images. A bit like "TensorFlow", but for physical simulations of light.
There seems to be an increasing use of the justification for a paper being "little is known". Here is the appearance of this phrase in PubMed. It looks like we know less as time progresses. Little is known about why this trend has developed.
I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives.
The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing.
Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

I am also opening a Mastodon @twi_mar@techhub.social account. Follow me there https://techhub.social/@twi_mar I am not sure if I will keep both Tribel and Mastodon. But I will for the moment give options for people to reconnect and we will all together find what works best.
Well well. This was fast. Seeing the own people inside Twitter are also leaving just in case future security breaches don’t put them in jail. I am starting a new account at

- Head of Legal warns employees to call out sick and use whistleblower service to avoid breaking the law
- Warns Musk only cares about monetizing users
- On brink of bankruptcy
