Human-computer interaction (HCI) has typically focused on tasks and functionality of software, often with attention to usability only applied once functionality has been achieved. However, both recent technological advances and current successes in the marketplace suggest that people care deeply about the interaction itself. People are attracted by interactions that are simple, natural, and intuitive; preferably even pleasurable and playful. In spite of the huge commercial interest in this area, research has remained focused on usability. In contrast, my research team and I will explore the science behind making technology motivating, attractive, and perhaps even compelling to use. This will be a deep focus on interaction, where we will explore the technologies that support physicality in touch, as well as full-body and spatial interaction, looking to unlock those aspects of interaction that can move us towards the playful and the ludic while retaining functionality.

人机交互（HCI）通常集中在软件的任务和功能上，通常只在功能实现后才关注可用性。然而，最近的技术进步和目前在市场上的成功都表明，人们非常关心交互本身。人们会被简单、自然和直观的互动所吸引，甚至更喜欢愉快和有趣的互动。尽管这一领域有着巨大的商业利益，但研究仍然集中在可用性上。相比之下，我和我的研究团队将探索使技术具有激励性，吸引力，甚至可能令人信服的科学。这将是对交互的深度关注，我们将探索支持物理触摸以及全身和空间交互的技术，希望解锁交互的这些方面，让我们在保持功能的同时走向有趣和嬉闹。
