Github repo

Google Summer of Code student Divyanshu will be presenting his work on the gamepad navigator, a Chrome extension that enables browser navigation using any controller compatible with the HTML5 gamepad API.  He will demonstrate the feature set to date, including the ability to configure your own control schemes.  Although any feedback is welcome, the project is interested in:

  1. Getting feedback on the UI of the configuration panel.

  2. Having others who are working with Chrome extensions see what he's done and talk about a few key technical challenges.

We encourage you to check out the project repository and try the extension if you are interested:https://github.com/fluid-lab/gamepad-navigator

Designing and Programming with Multiplicity

Workshop

Philip Tchernavskij

March 18, 2020

Meeting Notes

I am going to present my doctoral research work, focusing primarily on the theories and methods I applied and appropriated. My thesis project was part of a larger grant-funded project to develop conceptual and technical models for software that help people better control the many devices, apps, and documents they deal with in our era of ubiquitous computing. Control is not just a mediated by software architecture, but also by the social and economic arrangements in which software is made and used. To study these interacting phenomena, I drew from the disciplines of infrastructural ethnography, cultural-historical activity theory, software engineering, and more. I'm going to discuss how these concepts were useful to me, how they might be useful to this community, and where I'm still struggling with them.

Similar to the accessibility topic we had a couple weeks ago, we will encourage participants to share their experiences of collaborating while working remotely. Please feel free to share both strategies as well as issues that you have encountered. The goal will be to try out some of the strategies together, and discuss possible solutions for issues that you have encountered.
